More scientific proof of global warming err climate change - Sea Turtles getting 'cold stunned.'

Shell Shocked

Since the beginning of December, the NC Aquarium on Roanoke Island's Sea Turtle Assistance and Rehabilitation (STAR) Center has received 569 cold-stunned sea turtles (and counting) requiring urgent care.
Aquarium staff and volunteers are working around the clock to rehabilitate these turtles in trouble, who are suffering from hypothermia-like conditions caused by the recent temperature plunge.

As ocean temperatures continue to rise due to climate change, sea turtles follow warmer waters further and further north in summer. This often takes them beyond their traditional migratory routes. This puts them at risk of being too far north when fall arrives. Others become disoriented and trapped by geological features of coastlines, unable to make their way south.

The Gulf of Maine, which is bounded to the north by Cape Sable Island on the tip of Nova Scotia and to the south by Cape Cod, continues to warm faster than almost any place else on the planet. Sea turtles drawn there by warm water and abundant food can be caught by wintry weather and face a truly challenging route back to the southern Atlantic. This explains why so many of the sea turtles treated at the National Aquarium come to us from the crook of Cape Cod, where the geography can trap turtles as they attempt to head south from the Gulf of Maine.

You should read the article before posting it. I’m gonna give you the benefit of the doubt and say you didn’t read it.

My tip of the day.
