Ocean temperatures are heating up
The marine environment is turning into a dead zone
And fossil fuel projects are still fast tracked

"The wetlands had degraded over a long period of time, with barrages (structures that control water flow) added in the 1950s, higher nutrient loads and extended periods of reduced flow from the Murray... The recent drought and unusual algal blooms had been “eye openers” to many people."

The Guardian · Deadly algal bloom in South Australia’s Coorong an environmental ‘eye opener’, ecologist saysBy Petra Stock

'Cook' the ocean with fossil fuels,
add toxic algal bloom and runoff,
get a mass fish kill

SA’s marine algal bloom is still killing almost everything in its path
"This bloom represents a stark warning to coastal communities, as well as tourism, seafood and aquaculture industries. It’s a sign of what’s to come, in Australia and around the world, as the oceans warm." >>

Nearly 6,000 square miles - an area roughly the size of Connecticut - will become a "#deadzone" for #marine life in the #GulfOfMexico this #summer, #NOAA warned. Although such areas happen every summer, this year's will be more than 600 square miles larger than average. Dead zones are areas in water where #oxygen levels are so low that they can kill fish and other marine life. These zones typically emerge because of excessive nutrient #pollution caused by human activity. cbsnews.com/news/connecticut-s
