Chennai: Children play as "toxic" foam blankets Indian Beach

Waves of white moss covered the beach of Marina Beach in Chennai, India this weekend, attracting local children who saw playing in the moss.

According to local sources, the foam would be toxic due to the pollutants contained in the sewage, which mix with the seawater and get wet by the waves.

A local environmental officer told Indian Express newspaper that the authorities expect pollution in the water to be reduced "in a day or two".
