Gabes. Chott Essalem, June 3, 2016.
Following acid rain in April 2016, farmer Salem Chairat complained of losing 60% of his tobacco harvest. The Chairat family's farmland is located near the Tunisian Chemical Group's factory, which processes raw phosphate extracted from the Gafsa region to produce chemicals such as fertilizer and phosphoric acid. Farmers complain about pollution caused by toxic waste released into the air, soil, and sea, which regularly damages their crops.

Said poses in front of his house next to the Metlaoui phosphate factory.
Said Karait, 52, works at a bank in Metlaoui.
His 16-year-old son, Khoubaid, left Tunisia illegally in 2017 while traveling in Algeria.
Khoubaid managed to reach Italy by way of Kerkennah Island, located off the coast of Sfax and about 150 km from Lampedusa (Italy).
He is currently in Mestre, in the Padua region of Italy. He lives in difficult conditions and regularly asks his parents for money to support himself.

Metlaoui, Saturday, May 5, 2018
Khams, 21, lives by doing odd jobs. He participated in the January 2018 protests with other unemployed young people who had been rejected from the recruitment drive organized by the Gafsa Phosphate Company (CPG) to hire 1,700 employees and workers. 12,400 people applied.
Young people in Metlaoui are in a desperate situation. The only source of employment remains the state-owned Gafsa Phosphate Company (CPG), the region's main employer. However, the lack of recruitment for many years and the absence of prospects in other economic sectors are pushing many young people to attempt the perilous crossing of the Mediterranean to reach Italy and Europe.

Gabes, June 3, 2016.
Nazih Aoudi, a shipowner from Gabes and president of the Chott Essalem Association for Sustainable Development, observes stagnant polluted water on the beach at Gabes.
Toxic and polluting waste discharged by the Tunisian Chemical Group (GCT) plant has killed all marine life since the 1990s. The Gulf of Gabes was an important breeding ground. The plant releases 13,000 tons of phosphogypsum per day, a byproduct of the chemical transformation of phosphate into fertilizer, into the sea. Fishermen complain about the pollution caused by the release of toxic products into the air, soil, and sea, which has killed local marine flora and fauna.

Hillion (C么tes-d'Armor, Brittany). June 22, 2017.
In the Anse de Morieux (Saint-Brieuc Bay, C么tes-d'Armor), green algae (Ulva amoricana) are accumulating as the tide goes out. This phenomenon usually occurs starting in July with the arrival of warmer weather. But this year, environmental activists are concerned about its early arrival in May and are expecting a green tidal surge this year.

Saint-Brieuc, June 21, 2017.
On Cesson beach in Saint-Brieuc, green algae are brought in by the tide and then deposited on the beach. Forming piles, they decompose in the heat and can become toxic by accumulating hydrogen sulfide (H2S).
Green algae need nitrates and sunlight to thrive. The Bay of Saint-Brieuc is prone to "green tides" due to the high nitrate levels in the region. Nitrates are present in nitrogen fertilizers and manure, used for agricultural spreading. The amount of nitrates used in intensive agriculture exceeds what plants consume. The surplus is then released into the environment. The region's watershed-like geography allows the excess nitrates to flow into the sea via rivers.

Port of L茅gu茅, Saint-Brieuc, June 22, 2017
Yves-Marie Le Lay, president of the Sauvegarde du Tr茅gor association and co-president of Halte au mar茅es vertes (Stop the Green Tides).
Following an article in Ouest France about the foul odors in the port of L茅gu茅 in Saint-Brieuc, Yves-Marie Le Lay conducted a survey to prove that in certain areas, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is present in the mud produced by the decomposition of the green algae that are arriving in massive quantities. This year, the water level is particularly high in Brittany. Combined with nitrates discharged into the sea by farms, this explains the proliferation of green algae on the coast, as the heatwave promotes their decomposition and thus increases the risk of hydrogen sulfide gas released by the algae as they dry.
At low doses, H2S causes nausea and dizziness and gives off a rotten egg smell. In high doses, it can cause skin problems or even fatal poisoning.

Following an article in a regional newspaper about the foul odors in Saint-Brieuc, Andr茅 organized a demonstration in the port of Le L茅gu茅. Having invited journalists, he aimed to prove that the bad smells originated from the decomposition of green algae, which release large quantities of hydrogen sulfide (H2S). This toxic gas is believed to be the cause of numerous skin problems and cases of death from Ulva amoricana poisoning.

Guingamp, June 22, 2017.
Claude and Jeanne Morfroisse pay their respects at the grave of their son Thierry in the La Chesnay cemetery in Guingamp. Thierry Morfroisse died at the age of 48 while transporting green algae to the storage depot in Launay-Lantic on July 22, 2009.
Since 2009, the family has been fighting alongside local associations to denounce the green tide scandal in Brittany and to prove in court that their son was poisoned at his workplace after inhaling hydrogen sulfide (H2S) released by the decomposing algae.
"We want the truth to come out. We're not asking for anything else. Just the truth. It has to be recorded somewhere. We never want to see that again. But it will happen again if nothing is done." One day, a child will be poisoned, and that will be even more shocking.
For eight years, the Morfoisse family has been fighting to have their death recognized as a work-related accident while transporting decomposing green algae.
In June 2017, the Rennes court ordered the reopening of the proceedings at the hearing on October 19, 2017, to rule on the merits of the dispute between Thierry Morfoisse's heirs and the CPAM (French Health Insurance Fund) regarding the existence of a causal link between his death and his professional activity, which exposed him to green algae.

Green algae washed up on the beach at Anse de Morieux in the Bay of Saint-Brieuc (Brittany). The beach was closed by municipal order due to the presence of green algae considered dangerous. Once decomposed in the sun, the algae can release hydrogen sulfide (H2S), a gas toxic to humans and other living beings.

Dried green algae in the Gouessant estuary at Hillion, which flows into the sea. In September 2016, a runner died of cardiac arrest caused by respiratory failure at this spot, after trying to rescue his dog trapped in the mud of green algae. Authorities believe he died while trying to free himself from the mud.
During spring tides, the algae cling to the banks of the Gouessant. The whitish patches show the accumulation of dried algae due to the river's relatively calm flow during the summer months.

A man walks his horse on the beach.
Green algae have washed up on the beach at Anse de Morieux in the Bay of Saint-Brieuc (Brittany). The beach is closed by municipal decree due to the presence of green algae considered dangerous. Once they decompose in the sun, the algae can release hydrogen sulfide (H2S), a gas toxic to humans and other living beings.

Portrait of Andr茅 Ollivro, former executive at EDF-GDF, environmental activist against green algae (Ulva Amoricana) in the Bay of Saint-Brieuc, and co-president of the "Stop the Green Tides" association in Hillion, near Saint-Brieuc, Brittany.
"I have committed myself to saving victims, I have put people in legal situations, and I want to find all the arguments necessary to give lawyers the strength to secure recognition for the victims of the green tides in the Bay of Hillion, Brittany. I also want to encourage reflection on changing today's agricultural practices, which generate these green tides, so that our future generations can live in peace with the environment.
"I was fortunate to work in a public company where I learned to be a responsible citizen." I benefited from the advantages acquired by my predecessors and from collective agreements that allowed me to retire at 53. I now want to give back to society what it has given me throughout my professional career by seeing this vital health battle through to the end.

The B茅cassine puppet accompanies Andr茅 Ollivro on each of his awareness campaigns. A symbol of the region, Andr茅 wants to alert a wide audience to the dangers of green algae and raise awareness among local authorities, who, in his opinion, are not proactive enough on this issue.
Andr茅 intends to use powerful symbols and highly visual communication to make a lasting impression.
