Climate change and nutrient pollution are driving the oxygen from our oceans, and threatening many species of fish.

That's the conclusion of the biggest study of its kind, undertaken by conservation group IUCN.

While nutrient run-off has been known for decades, researchers say that climate change is making the lack of oxygen worse.

Around 700 ocean sites are now suffering from low oxygen, compared with 45 in the 1960s.

Researchers say the depletion is threatening species including tuna, marlin and sharks.

• Concerns over ocean heating report
• Last decade 'on course' to be warmest
• Birds 'shrinking' as the climate warms

The threat to oceans from nutrient run-off of chemicals such as nitrogen and phosphorus from farms and industry has long been known to impact the levels of oxygen in the sea waters and still remains the primary factor, especially closer to coasts.

However, in recent years the threat from climate change has increased.

The biggest problem facing this planet is rampant over population.  While estimates state we can as a planet support up to 15 billion people, we cannot sustain almost 8 billions with the way we are running things.

 

A mass die off is coming and that will certainly solve some of the problem.  Take 2+ billion away from the global population and it will help the problem.

Declining investment in Canada in never a good thing.

It's too bad the Alberta Gov didn't have a plan for the future of its economy years ago when pressure was just starting to be evident from the international community.

 

I believe if they take a cold hard look and forecast properly they'll see they absolutely need to diversify their investments and make a strong push towards a greener more sustainable future. 

 

On a federal level, the Gov &^@#ed up badly decades ago by not nationalizing our natural resources. Instead they pretty much gave away Alberta's future to corporate interests which is a massive failure. 

Just like they &^@#ed up BC's forests and fisheries.

 

Big round of applause for the Corptocracy! Yay! All Canadians get &^@#ed over! Hooray!

Oil producer Dubai has been thinking ahead years ago, unlike our power hungry, greedy politicians.

The oil and gas sector were at the heart of a debate that led to the cancellation of a central Alberta school’s family dance.

 

Jayson Lovell, the superintendent for the Wolf Creek Public Schools district, said it started last week out with comments on a community Facebook page that questioned a lesson taught by a teacher at Iron Ridge Intermediate Campus in Blackfalds, just outside of Red Deer.

 

A parent believed the teacher was espousing anti-oil and gas values to a Grade 4 social studies class, Lovell said in an interview with Black Press Media, and only presented one side of the story.

Lol this is hilarious. Sounds like 1920's south Carolina and evolution. Lol

man Kenney really did learn all he knows from Harper  you can't force projects through by ignoring your first nations partners. 

 

First Nation says Alberta premier is 'killing' proposed oilsands mine by failing to address concerns

 

‘This would be the first time that the Alberta government is killing its own oilsand project,’ says chief

 

 

 

Alberta Premier Jason Kenney is urging the federal government to approve an oilsands mine which would be the largest Canada has ever seen — but a northern Alberta First Nation says the main obstacle facing the project is Kenney's own government.

Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation, north of Fort McMurray, Alta., is accusing the Alberta premier of sabotaging the project by neglecting to address lingering environmental concerns.

"The Alberta government is killing its own oilsands project by not negotiating with ACFN," Athabasca Chipewyan Chief Allan Adam told CBC News.

 

Vancouver-based Teck Resources wants to develop a $20.6-billion oilsands project about 110 kilometres north of Fort McMurray. The project would disturb 292 square kilometres of pristine wetlands and boreal forest over its 40-year lifespan (although Teck won't actively mine its whole lease at once). That's an area half the size of the city of Edmonton.

• Kenney in Ottawa to call for approval of massive open-pit oilsands mine

• First Nations youth protest proposed massive oilsands mine at UN climate conference

    

Kenney was in Ottawa this week to urge the Trudeau government to act on a list of provincial demands, including the swift approval of the Frontier mine.

"Another thing that must be done is to get to a positive approval of the Teck Resources mine in northern Alberta," Kenney said Monday during an address to the Canadian Club. "(The mine) has multiple deep partnerships with Indigenous communities."

'The premier has to take a step back' 

Unlike past oilsands projects, Frontier isn't getting vocal opposition from large numbers of Indigenous communities. Teck has secured the support of all 14 First Nations and Metis communities the mine affects. That includes the Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation — which Kenney singled out in recent remarks by noting its chief once hosted anti-oilsands Hollywood celebrities like Leonardo DiCaprio and Jane Fonda.

"Chief Adam has given his conditional support to the Teck Resources oilsands mine because he sees it as an opportunity to move his people from poverty to prosperity." Kenney said.

 

But Adam, who was also in Ottawa Monday and attended Kenney's speech, said the Alberta government has failed to meet with his nation to address outstanding environmental concerns.

"The premier has to take a step back," Adam told CBC News immediately after Kenney's speech. "We won't let Canada approve this project unless Alberta is at the table fulfilling their obligations. Because we are not just going to take hot air anymore."

Adam said the Alberta government needs to satisfy fears about the loss of fish, bison and caribou habitat before the federal cabinet makes its decision on the mine at the end of February. Adam has threatened to take legal action if Alberta doesn't address those concerns

"If they don't do that, Alberta is going to kill this project by themselves," Adam said, suggesting the project will die in the courts.

• Oilsands mine in public interest despite 'significant adverse' effects, panel says

• Fort McMurray region's Indigenous groups support oilsands mine, company tells review panel 

   

If approved, Teck's Frontier mine would produce 260,000 barrels of oil a day starting in 2026.

The mine underwent a review in 2018 by both federal and Alberta regulators. The joint-panel review concluded the mine would be in the public's interest but would significantly harm the environment and Indigenous peoples. The regulators issued several recommendations, citing the need to mitigate negative effects on the environment and habitat.

Adam said his nation has been meeting with the federal government to resolve its concerns. But the Alberta government hasn't come to the table.

The Alberta premier's office directed questions to Alberta Environment and Parks. In an email, the department's press secretary, Jess Sinclair, said the provincial government has met with ACFN several times.

"Throughout these meetings, we were able to focus a discussion on key items for consideration, which was communicated to ACFN," Sinclair stated. "The items include working toward establishing the biodiversity stewardship area, which is completed."

But an ACFN spokesperson said Tuesday night there are still a number of outstanding concerns that need to addressed.

Sinclair also said the Alberta premier had a brief phone call with Adam to congratulate him on his re-election as chief and to discuss working "productively with ACFN on this critical project."

Teck Resources' spokesperson Chris Stannell declined to comment for this story.

Two people in China have been diagnosed with plague, the latest cases of a disease more commonly associated with historical catastrophe.

Plague is caused by the bacterium Yersinia pestis and can arise in three forms – a lung infection, known as pneumonic plague; a blood infection, known as septicemic plague; and a form that affects the lymph nodes, called bubonic plague.

The last of those forms is perhaps the most famous, and was behind several pandemics including the Black Death of the late middle ages, which is estimated to have killed up to 60% of the European population."

There will be a fresh water shortage sooner than later. There already is but it only affects poor people for the most part. When it begins to affect bigger, richer countries and even superpowers..  That lack of fresh water will be the reason of the next great war.

Plague is caused by globalists at the behest of the cabal secretly injecting them with vaccines that do little but cause autism and plague.  This dates back many millennia as proven by the many anti-acolytes who keep getting infected by secret cabal operations over the years.
