* "The ​heat is also hitting cattle farmers. High temperatures reduce feed intake, increase ​water demand and ⁠cut milk output. They're standing there with ​their mouths wide open, just trying to find air...It's very difficult, physically for people and for the animals." >>

Brewing oceans, brewing storms, making a blooming disaster

"Over the past year, Australia’s oceans have been hotter than ever before...The continued burning of fossil fuels has caused our atmosphere to warm by approximately 1.2 degrees C since the pre-industrial era....If you change what happens in the oceans, you start to change the whole system...The problem with climate change is we’re hitting that system incredibly hard with extra energy and we’re putting a lot of pressure on the oceans."

Global oxygen decline in the ocean
Ocean hypoxia: The science of climate change in the sea

"... The field will need to draw on ... advances to meet demands for adaptation solutions to the continued progression of global ocean deoxygenation, particularly in conjunction with ocean acidification and marine heatwaves in a multi-stressor scenario."
