You say that like it's a bad thing.
All anyone has to do is look at the history of earth to know that climate change is inevitable. You act like I should be concerned that certain species of fish are dying. Doesn't it occur to you that the history of the oceans is the history of change as well. The oceans are getting warmer? Prepare to Marlin fish out of SF Bay....
I'm being facetious, but the reality is there's a blessing for every curse. God shuts a door somewhere and opens a window somewhere else. You actually think that species not suited to a changed ocean habitat will not be replaced? Great grasp of consequences you've got there.
The difference between you and I is you are concerned about the CONSEQUENCES of global warming, ocean warming, climate change. I'm not. My ignorance about "global warming" pales to the ignorance of some posters about how the world really operates. Things change. We'll adapt or we won't. And if either Malthus or St John prove right in their vision of the future then so what.
There are enough real tragedies and calamaties that occur in the course of life to be concerned about rather than focus on being alarmed about the inevitable changes to ocean and air temperatures....
We survived the last ice age and the last mini ice age a few hundred years back. We'll survive this period of warming/cooling/change, too, to the chagrin of the alarmists everywhere....
