Dead and dying lakes? Do you have examples, I'm genuinely curious.

In New Zealand some of there larger lakes have a fantastic natural solutions towards algal problems especially. This solutions has been periodically delivered over a period of hundreds of years to lakes surrounding active or previously active volcano's. The pumice that came out of eruptions has acted as a sponge for phosphate's in the water. As for other lakes over 70% of New Zealand's electricity is generated from hydro stations, located on lakes. Now I'm not to sure whether this might have a problem on the application process of Phoslock (water constantly being moved around, the Phoslock being drained down streams with water releases) but I would think this might affect the process. This added with political bureaucracy like Australia the government thinks it has more pressing environmental problems to spend money on.

I think markets like New Zealand would be a complete waste of time. No large market there. Better sticking to markets that actually need environmental solutions (China, Brazil) and are willing to spend the money to get it.
