Eutrophication is pretty much the excess growth of an environment, mainly lakes. Natural Eutrophication is where a lake naturally becomes more productive, which can take hundreds of years. Artificial Eutrophication however, speeds up this process immensely because of all the fertilizer from human activities.Too much can be a problem as Eutrophication reduces dissolved oxygon in the water and can cause organisms to die.
