The provincial Environment Ministry says it was fluorescein that found its way into the Goldstream River and a Langford fountain Wednesday, turning both fluorescent green.
"Fluorescein is a synthetic organic compound soluble in water and alcohol. It is widely used as a fluorescent tracer for many applications. The product itself and its products of degradation are not toxic."

Olafur Eliasson.

He has done this to a few rivers around the world and watches and studies how the public and media react to the river.
