Oceans that are warming due to climate change yield fewer fish

     Increasing ocean temperatures over 80 years are reducing the amount of fish there are. some areas of the ocean seen up to 35 percent decline were seas are heavily fished in. The warmer ocean temperature are really affecting the populations of haddock and other shell fish. I think this could potentially be a bigger problem so we need to start finding solutions for the increasing temperatures now.

    rising temperatures are reducing the amount of so many animals... ocean or not. It could become a bigger problem if people need these fish for food.

    It is really interesting to think that the temperature has been rising for 80 years and it is just starting to affect the number of fish now.

    This issue is going to create problems for more than just the fishing industry. Entire ecosystems could be thrown off because of the lack of fish and various species could go extinct as a result.

Dual-fuel vehicles

A recent study shows that dual- fuel vehicles are benefiting the population but, turns out they are costing the environment. While substituting gasoline for ethanol gases, it causes an increase of ultra fine particle matter, with a 30% increase of atmospheric concentration. The problem is that they are less then 50 nanometers in diameter. The nano particles are also not track or regulated by the environmental agencies. We inhale these gases everyday, inhaling ethanol. The most practical way to reduce greenhouse gases is using electric, hybrid and biofuel care.   https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/08/170828124546.htm

Acid Zone in Chesapeake Bay Found

     According to the University of Delaware, the Chesapeake Bay is becoming acidic as it has gone to 7.4 pH from an average of 8.2. The oxidation of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide may be the factor that is leading to the higher acidity levels in coastal oceans, but it can eventually lead to more of open oceans. Naturally the waters of the Chesapeake Bay have a regulatory system that holds back the increase of acidity levels in the area, and this works as the dissolving of living shells, non-living aragonite, and calcite minerals. Though nature has a path to keep the waters in the Chesapeake Bay, humans should take more care of our Earth as we have a role in polluting the water and rising the acidity levels in coastal oceans. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/08/170828093737.htm
