The Ocean Is Running Out Of Oxygen

[Lightbringer]

As the title says, the ocean is losing oxygen at a rapid rate and threatens not just all marine life, but all life on Earth as 70% of the oxygen we breath comes from the ocean.

When exactly will people start to take climate change seriously?

No oxygen in water means no more swimming :T_T:

it mean no more breathing too.

 

[Yeah right]

This is a serious question. What would it take to make artificial oxygen. Not fake oxygen but just farm out oxygen through a breaking bonds method. Humans are like 70% water? Release the oxygen from their bodies.

Who cares about that tho

Technology we don't have would be the best answer. We can grow more plants, but that's the best we can do as far as I know.

some will never do it.

just as there are a few hundreds of thousand people alive today that believes the earth is flat...

some people are just to ignorent and stupid to put 2 and 2 together.

that would kill the person you are "farming"....

When you get your ass out and start doing something about it.

lel , the earth is gonna be such a big mess in 50 years when the population will reach breaking points

Science can solve this. Nasa and space scientists are hiding the technology of making artificial oxygen and water. They just won't share it with us. Like they have Nikola Tesla's secret radio wave free and earth wave energy exploitation plants in Area D2. Antarctica is actually a place where SP regularly conducts water and oxygem experiments.

Hydrogen + oxygen = water so scientists can easily add up the natural reserves and make infinite water.

Nice idea. This is brilliant, but then you'll have another problem. You know what is called?

Spoiler

Dehydration.

 

[Dreckerplayer]

Hehe, something to get all frantic about...

anyways,

I couldn't care less for sea critters. I don't eat fish or meat, and I notice they serve no bigger purpose.

When animals go extinct, it's gonna be the same thing...no,more,purpose.

Glad I'm so ahead of the situation. Hope people don't start eating rats, dogs, cats...or each other. You know how entitled america feels when it comes to meat, who knows what a lack of it will lead to. Meat eating is so barbaric and obsolete, anyways.

ARE YOU CRAZY?YOU SHALLOW, MATERIALIST?LMAO!!!!SUCH AN EXTREMIST IDEA!!

That's just desperate. Don't interfere with mother nature like that. Let em die.We all die, at some point.

Your time is your time.

Don't preserve something that's long overdue.

Did you read any of these? You realize ocean dead zones have little to nothing to do with climate change and more to do with algricultural run off of nitrogen, general pollution, and oil spills? I've done extensive research and study on this topic for CHM. Basically, excessive nitrogen and phosphorus run off from chemical fertilizer is absorbed by aquatic plant life like algae which in trade reduces the overall quality of oxygen in the water and increases the amount of toxins and bacteria introduced in the water, killing off aquatic life and polluting water ways. Literally a quote from your first article "Although this problem has nothing to do with warmer waters caused by human-induced climate change, humans aren’t off the hook".

Climate change is an issue worth discussing, but ocean dead zones is primarily a pollution issue, not a climate change issue. The effect the climate has on dead zones is only in correlation to the plant life that causes depletion of oxygen in the water.

About time

So you're stalking my life now?

Are you intentionally being disingenuous or did you not read the article yourself?

You quoted the article out of context.


Literally in that same article, it says:

"The change is connected with warmer ocean temperatures. “Warmer water holds less oxygen,” Levin explained. Also, increased surface temperatures make it more difficult for oxygen to reach relatively deeper parts of the ocean."



In the original journal published about the loss of oxygen in the oceans, it says:

"In the open ocean, global warming, which is primarily caused by increased greenhouse gas emissions, is considered the primary cause of ongoing deoxygenation."



And in the same passage of which you misquoted, you left out the part where it said:

"A second source of deoxygenation also plagues the coastal waters. Although this problem has nothing to do with warmer waters caused by human-induced climate change, humans aren’t off the hook."


It's talking about a second factor which doesn't have to do with climate change specifically, but the loss of oxygen being quadrupled is still mainly due to climate change.

Seems this would effect marine life's ability to live then it would impact us?

Yeah, but it's already affecting marine life as we speak.

As I've said, roughly 70% of the oxygen that we breath comes from the ocean. If this continues, it will significantly impact our own lives.

This will also affect the fishing industry worldwide and all other oceanic related fields. So you can get a sense of how catastrophic this is. The issue is of paramount importance.
