As it turns out, climate change may have something to do with this. According to a recent study published by my research team, we can now add climate change to this list. Climate change affects our ocean and fisheriesThe latest report from the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change confirmed that climate change is impacting the ocean, fish stocks and fisheries through ocean warming, loss of sea ice, ocean acidification, heatwaves, ocean deoxygenation and other extreme weather events. As climate change continues to shuffle species’ distribution in ocean waters, we expect that climate-induced changes to seafood menus at restaurants will become even more pronounced. Our study on restaurant menus underscores the wide-ranging impacts of climate change on our food system.
