***PLEASE NOTE*** The opinions shared in this video are mine alone. I am not putting blame on any particular person, business or entity. I am merely pointing out some of the known causes of aquatic life poisoning in large bodies of water.

Dead fish and birds are washing up on the shores of our local lake, the Barragem de Marateca. I went around the lake to investigate and try and get to the bottom of what's causing it. This lake is the drinking water for the Castelo Branco district in Central Portugal so its very important that this water source is protected.

In this video we take a look at the various things that can cause aquatic animals to die, such as low oxygen levels, Blue Green algae, poisons and toxic metals such as copper. We ride around the dam and look at how farming can potentially affect lakes and rivers negatively. 🐟💀☠️

We are Ken & Gina, and we left the UK in 2019 in search of a simpler life, away from our office jobs, and the hustle and bustle of the big city. We sold our house, left the UK, and left the Rat race behind us, to move to Portugal and buy an abandoned farm. We found an amazing farm in Castelo Branco, Central Portugal where we have lived for the last two and a half years. We make these videos for our friends and family to keep up with what’s going on in our new lives and as a record to look back on one day so see how far we have come. We are always amazed when we see how many people have been watching, following, and subscribing to our vlogs. Thanks for tuning in 😊
