Phew!

When we think about global warming, our first thought is usually about heat trapped in the atmosphere by greenhouse gases. But the phenomenon of global warming, one of the major symptoms of climate change, is also causing the warming of our oceans. A while ago we explored the rising sea levels — and touched on the reasons and expected impacts. But it’s time to wade deeper into the health of our oceans.
