WWF: World's Fish Are In Hot Water

(AP) Higher water temperatures are threatening the world's fish by
reducing food stocks and stunting growth, which could cause them to
reproduce less, the World Wildlife Fund said Friday.

Global warming is causing the world's rivers, lakes and oceans to heat
up and some temperate fish like salmon, catfish and sturgeon cannot
spawn at all if winter temperatures do not drop below a certain level,
according to the Gland, Switzerland-based conservation group.

"The balance is set to tip, as climate change continues the pressure on
fish populations already strained by overfishing, pollution and habitat
loss," said Katherine Short, a WWF fisheries expert. "We must act to
protect fish, both marine and freshwater. They are one of our most
valuable biological, nutritional and economic assets."

blah, blah, blah.

"Act to protect our fish"??? How?? Reverse the natural climate changes
we're experiencing? Throw fish pellets into the water? Eliminate
natural predators?

What part of "the earth's climate is changing because we're coming out
of an ice age" is hard to understand?

They fail to discuss the root cause of global warming. That's because
they want everyone to think its from greenhouse gasses caused by man.
This is absurd since man contributes very little to the total amount of
greenhouse gasses. Many groups that blame man are quick to qualify
their statements with something like "Factoring out volcanos and other
natural events" when these are the MAJOR source of these gasses.

Volcanic eruption in the last 100 years or so have put out many times
what man has since he wsa been on earth. Forest fires contribute
massive amounts of these gasses. These are natural events unless you
think man can just stop volcanos from erupting by passing a law against
that kind of event.

And there is significant evidence to point to the FACT that global
warming is what happens naturally when we're coming out of an ice age.
