MORE PROOF

Just in case you need it
LONDON (AFP) - Nearly two-thirds of North Sea fish stocks have left their normal habitat to seek cooler waters further north because of global warming, according to a new study published in the magazine Science. Lead researcher and marine biologist, Alison Perry, from the University of East Anglia in Norwich, said that certain species such as cod, sole and whiting could disappear from the North Sea by 2050.

The research has profound implications for the fishing industry in the North Sea, the researchers said.

"It isn't just a case of individual fish choosing to move towards colder waters. It points towards an entire population of fish becoming less viable in response to warming," said Perry
