Sydney Beach's Mysterious Black Blobs Unveiled as Foul Waste

Mysterious black balls that washed up on Sydney's beaches have been identified as mini 'fatbergs,' composed of human waste, drugs, and other pollutants. Initially thought to be tar, these foul-smelling masses prompted beach closures and clean-up efforts. Scientists from the University of New South Wales discovered their composition, highlighting pollution issues along Sydney's coastline. The exact origin of these fatbergs remains unknown, though they likely stem from mixed waste sources.
