If you notice, I do not have any comments on Global Warming on my site.  The problem is that there is so much propaganda, on both sides of the argument, that the topic is poison.  People either believe it is happening or they don't, and no Data or debate is going to make ANYONE change sides.

What can be argued, and actually only Radical Right Wing Radio Talk Show Hosts still claim is not true, is whether Man has an effect on his climate and environment.  The Data is overwhelming that we do!  The mechanisms for the changes in climate, weather patterns, and the environment as a whole, is not "Mumbo Jumbo Science".  No Authority on either side of the debate is saying that Man doesn't have an effect, with most of that being negative.  That's why I leave the Global Warming argument alone, so that I can concentrate on a message we can all understand:  IF WE CONTINUE TO DUMP TOXINS INTO OUR ATMOSPHERE AND WATER, WE WILL KILL WHAT KEEPS US ALIVE, THUS WE WILL KILL ALL MANKIND!!!

It doesn't take a scientist to figure out that poisons in our environment eventually wind up in us.

Growing low-oxygen zones in oceans worry scientists

WASHINGTON — Lower levels of oxygen in the Earth's oceans, particularly off the United States' Pacific Northwest coast, could be another sign of fundamental changes linked to global climate change, scientists say.

They warn that the oceans' complex undersea ecosystems and fragile food chains could be disrupted.

Areas of hypoxia, or low oxygen, have long existed in the deep ocean...These areas...appear to be spreading...covering more square miles, creeping toward the surface...encroaching on the continental shelf within sight of the coastline.

Southern California coast, oxygen levels have dropped roughly 20 percent over the past 25 years.   Elsewhere...oxygen levels might have declined by one-third over 50 years.

"The real surprise is how this has become the new norm," said Jack Barth , an oceanography professor at Oregon State University . "We are seeing it year after year."

Previous studies have found that the oceans are becoming more acidic as they absorb more carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases..."If the Earth continues to warm, the expectation is we will have lower and lower oxygen levels," said Francis Chan , a marine researcher at Oregon State ...the warmer water on the surface acts as a cap, which interferes with the natural circulation that normally allows deeper waters that are already oxygen-depleted to reach the surface.

"It's a large disturbance in the ecosystem that could have huge biological changes," said Steve Bograd , an oceanographer at NOAA's Southwest Fisheries Science Center in Southern California .

"It's like an experiment," Chan said. "We are pulling some things out of the food web and we will have to see what happens. But if you pull enough things out, it could have a real impact."
