Coastlines can trap species and cause extinction as oceans warm
As oceans warm, many marine species are being squeezed into shrinking habitats, with coastlines cutting off their paths to cooler, safer waters.
When that escape fails, the losses spread beyond wildlife – disrupting food supplies, livelihoods,…
