Ocean clean up

Chlorine is a common ingredient in cleaning products,
and can be used for scrubbing everything from
bathroom tiles to ocean floors. These divers are trying to remove harmful seaweed in the Mediterranean
Sea using the power of chlorine. This green weed grows quickly and can potentially kill other sea plants
by depriving them of their essential nutrients. Some fish are also poisoned if they eat this toxic weed.
