Corta Madera stinks anyway...the algae helps to cover the smell of smugness coming from the rich spoiled people that live there.

I would suggest that this problem with algae around the Bay Area bays is a regional issue, not a local one. There is a similar problem in Vallejo, on San Pablo Bay, and we recently drove across the Dumbarton bridge and I noticed that same smell at the east end wetlands.
This is a real stink for nearby residences & businesses, and something has to be done about it. Of course, the Sierra Club will probably want to declare scum on the bay floor an endangered species.

If we do not stop spending, and consuming out land is good as dead...Our entire bay is polluted and landfilled with trash, our bay, the most expensive place in the San Francisco is garbage landfill, its not even real land....I would not buy anything that did not exist on actual dirt....Once again, the entire bay in toxic, the fish already are dying, the people already are, it is hidden and covered up, dare I say genocide....The statistics are altered to serve the united corporate states of the americas
