CULT: fertilizer chemicals (good? bad? for whom?)



I bought a superphosphate labeled 0-42-0 (or something).


I know nothing of the true chemistry of it all. Does this 
bag of fertilizer have in it any "inorganic compounds"
or chemicals that are not naturally occuring?

I thought I had read that phosphates are adding to run-off
problems and algae blooms in the Midwest. My beds (eventually)
drain into the Mississippi.

I don't want to throw things out of whack just for 
a couple of extra blooms.

Can anyone give me scholarship or resources on the matter?
