When it comes to letting you know about environmental problems, these plants tell it like it is. JPost reports that scientists at Bar-Ilan University have figured out a way to get algae to produce sound. The algae produce different sounds if water is contaminated or clean, so scientists can know whether the water is safe for public use. “Sounds” like this discovery could be of great use to lots of different places around the world who need assistance in monitoring their water supplies.
