The footage depicted the lake's surface completely covered in a thick layer of blue-green algae and decaying organic matter. Lough Neagh, the United Kingdom's largest freshwater lake, is now grappling with a crisis as these toxic algae blooms wreak havoc on its aquatic ecosystem. These algae are not just unsightly; they also contain harmful toxins, posing a grave threat to the lake's delicate balance and the myriad species that call it home.
