The pair restarted their work in Massachusetts with about 400 brook trout reared for up to eight months in tanks. The scientists kept some of the fish in waters set at 59 degrees Fahrenheit while others at 68 degrees Fahrenheit. All were fed the same diet.
By the end of the experiment, the difference was stark. The trout raised in warmer waters were on average less than half the size as the other fish.
Mass Starvation and mass migration due to the climate change
These are the two things that will severely affect every part of the globe in the next few decades. No one will care about why the animals are dying or getting smaller, or why storms are getting worse or why floods are happening … millions of people will be moving into places where other people already live and people won’t like that.
And we’ll wonder why the world is degrading and why we are fighting one another.
