Goodbye Oxygen
That face when eutrophication kicks in! The meme perfectly captures the horror of aquatic life during algal blooms. When excess phosphorus and nitrogen (usually from fertilizer runoff) hit water bodies, algae throws an absolute rager—multiplying like crazy and turning everything that sickly green color. As these party-hard algae eventually die, bacteria decompose them, consuming all available oxygen in the process. The result? A hypoxic "dead zone" where fish and other organisms basically make this exact panicked face right before suffocating. It's like nature's version of "the morning after a wild party, but everyone's too dead to regret it."
