Oceans Are On The Edge Maybe Might Possibly Of Being Oxygen Starved Or Something

Today’s story of doom

Oceans on edge of being oxygen STARVED due to climate change, researchers fear
THE world’s ocean are at the tipping pint of being starved of oxygen leading to mass sea life extinction which could last a million years, researchers fear.

University of Exeter scientist say the modern ocean is “on the edge of anoxia” – when the oceans are depleted of oxygen. (snip)

She said: “Once you get into a major event like anoxia, it takes a long time for the Earth’s system to rebalance.

“This shows the vital importance of limiting disruption to the carbon cycle to regulate the Earth system and keep it within habitable bounds.”

Of course, this is supposed to play out over the next million years or so, based on things that have happened in the past. Interestingly, the article itself doesn’t necessarily support the apocalyptic headline and subhead, nor does the paper. But, hey, what’s a little scaremongering from the media to spread some awareness?

And they love throwing out the tipping point phrase.
