What caused coral near Key West to get diseased? Human feces. That's the first case in which human poop has been shown to kill an invertebrate. It's not that the Keys pump poop into the ocean, but the septic systems leak poop into the water. They're putting in treatment systems, but it's too late for the coral. And now I'm thinking of my many trips to the Keys and the seafood I've eaten there, and... ew. (LiveScience via MSNBC)
