Extreme claims like "That the sea will become a killer is a given." require extreme evidence yet nothing is cited.

Overly alarmist article from 2017 lacking actual substance.

This seems, at best, a misunderstanding of the statement and at worst disingenuous. Firstly, if the sea kills one person, it’s a “killer”. But the article goes on at some length to explain the massive impact changes in the sea will have on human and fish life.
