Global Warming affects the fishes

Thursday, August 6th, 2009

When the news papers and broadcasters talk about global warming, it is usually in reference to the affect it has on human life, not other creatures on the planet. We focus on what affects us directly, and are content with that being the most important thing.
However, recent studies have shown a massive growth in the amounts of fresh water fish being affected by new diseases, and this in turn is causing a drop in poopulation, increasing the liklihood of extinction and reducing the overall health of various species of fish.
How will this then affect human health? Will this push up the cost of fish? Or will it simply lower the quality? Will we see some kind of aquatic “mad cow” panic?
Who knows, the affects of pollution and global warming have far reaching consequences, and until it’s happened noonw can really predict what will happen. But there is one guaranteed way of preventing this – don’t pollute, recycle, etc etc – but who wants to “waste time” doing that?
