Phytoplankton are the ultimate ‘keystone’ species in the ocean. We have lost 40% so far and are currently at a loss rate of 1% a year. Ocean heating is the issue.

We currently have enough CO2 in the atmosphere to get us another 1 to 2 degrees C over today’s global average. So we have enough heating in the pipeline to starve these critters down to almost nothing even if we stop our CO2 emissions today.

If they go … we go. That’s the brutal fact.

Even more really sucky enviro news!

Bobby Jindal is an imbecile. He obviously hasn’t got a clue about the power of the tides. I vote we throw him into an erupting volcano to plug the vent.
