Oceans may face dual threats from humans in the next 25 years
Earth's lifeline increases stress due to sea, human controlled activities. Over the next 25 years, researchers warned that water heating, pollution and overfing can create a double crisis for marine ecosystems. Increasing the sea temperature accelerates coral bleaching, obstacle to the migration of fish and biodiversity is weakened. In addition, plastic waste, chemical spread and untreated sewage continue to poison sea habitats, threatening both aquatic life and human health. Overfishing adds another layer of anxiety, reduces large species and irritates organic balance. Climate change reinforces this pressure and makes unexpected weather patterns and changes sea chemistry. Experts believe that immediate global action is necessary to curb greenhouse gas emissions, adopt durable fish practice and reduce pollution. Without immediate intervention, the common effect of heating, pollution and utilization can permanently damage the oceans, reducing the planet's ability to regulate food safety, coastal life and climate. The next two decades are important to preserve the health of the sea.
The Key points
- The seas have severe stress from human activities.
- Rising sea temperature triggers coral bleaching.
- Climate change seas changes chemistry and streams.
- Pollution from plastic and chemicals damage the ecosystem.
- Overfishing reduced significant marine species.
- Loss of biodiversity threatens global food security.
- Coastal communities risk economic collapse.
- Hot water interferes with the migration pattern of the fish.
- Experts ask for immediate policy action.
- Permanent fishing and emission cuts are important.
