Sea life in the Pacific Ocean will start to suffocate by 2030

Climage change-driven oxygen loss is already detectable in certain areas of ocean and will likely be “widespread” by 2030 or 2040 according to a study by Oceanographer Matthew Long at the National Center for Atmospheric Research Oxygen-deprived oceans may have “significant impacts on marine ecosystems” and leave some areas of ocean all but uninhabitable for certain species Some ocean critters, like dolphins and whales get oxygen by surfacing but many, including fish and crabs, rely on oxygen that enters the water from the atmosphere
