FRANCE-ENVIRONMENT-WATER-ALGAE

Photo taken on August 9, 2009 in Saint-Michel-en-Greve, western France, shows a part of the coastline that has been declared off-limits after a horse collapsed and almost instantly died when he slipped on a patch of rotting algae. Local authorities acknowledge they are unable to get rid of the decomposing seaweed that has washed up on shores in more than 80 communities across Brittany. Mounds of putrified green algae are building up on France's northern coast, releasing poisonous fumes.
