Sounds like we've finally found a use for all those oceans we built. The problem with liquids like this that use up oxygen when you dump them in water is that they use up all the oxygen when you dump them in the pond. Dump them in a place with plenty of water and they find all the oxygen they need and happily degrade without killing all your fish. Back in my Environmental Engineer days, I worked on a study of Ethylene Glycol (the stuff they use do de-ice airplanes), and how it affected the local wetlands. The worry wasn't that it would get into the waterways. There's no stopping that if you spray thousands of gallons of it onto a runway. The worry was that those local waterways wouldn't disperse it fast enough for it to harmlessly degrade into weetabix and rainbows (or whatever similarly neutral stuff it turns into when you add water and oxygen to it) before it affected the critters in the pond. So it seems like a nice solution to this, that definitely won't fly if you tell anybody with an easy sense of environmental outrage and a disinclination to read a chemistry book, would be to load up a big boat full of it, steam well out to sea, and open the cork.
