Algae can be both beneficial and harmful, depending on the type and conditions. While many algae are essential for ecosystems and play a crucial role in oxygen production and as a food source, harmful algal blooms (HABs) can produce toxins that negatively impact water quality, aquatic life, and human health. These blooms often result from nutrient pollution, particularly excess nitrogen and phosphorus. Therefore, it's important to manage nutrient inputs to prevent harmful algal growth.
