If only you had stopped eating meat, made your own clothes, and stopped using AC this could have been solved. Oh, and paying a tax. Don’t forget paying a tax
Venomous aquatic invader spreads across Israeli coasts, Europe thanks to climate change
While there is no shortage of threats facing Israel and Europe right now, climate change may have introduced a new one: the rabbitfish (a.k.a the Aras).
The venomous aquatic invader comes in four sub-species, two of which are currently found in the Mediterranean, Tel Aviv University Zoologist Dr. Menachem Goren explained to the Jerusalem Post.
The first and most common, known as the marble spinefoot, was first recorded on Israeli shorelines over 200 years ago in 1924. The second, the dusky spinefoot, was found along Israeli shores in 1955 after traveling through the Suez Canal.
While the fish has been long recorded in Israel now, the population has dramatically increased in recent years as a result of climate change, spreading as far into Europe as France, Dr. Goren explained. The dusky spinefoot, in particular, is less sensitive to cold waters, making its movements to Europe much easier.
So, it’s nothing new, it’s just doing better. Perhaps less pollution in the Med, more protections for the waters. Oh, wait, spreading because of cold waters? Huh. Cult.
Both subspecies are herbivores, eating up much of the Mediterranean’s green algae and seagrass, the environment used for cover by native fish and crustaceans.
Do these doomsday cultists not realize that life actually spreads on Earth? Always has, always will? Oh, right, cult.

At least the media are not saying that these venomous bunnyfish are invading the coasts of ‘Palestine,’ a tacit admission that there is no such thing as ‘Palestine’!
If Netanyahoo, 47, Teach and Mr Dana get their wish all the Palestinians will become extinct!
Anyway, as you all finally admit, global warming is real and is having effects on human life. Stop whining and get used to it.
Relax! You’ve won!! Nothing of consequence will be done about warming. We’ll have to adapt.
Critically, Mister Forty-$even is stopping all global warming research AND commincations! WINNING!!
What “Palestinians”? Is there some made-up country that we don’t know about?
Ther is much you do not know! Did you know that humans draw borders and create countries? It’s true! Some countries even change their names!
And sometimes groups are known by their region of origin.
Your argument, such as it is, is not the conclusive gotcha you imagine!
Those are called “invasive species”. The fault is the opening of the Suez canal, allowing the fish to swim from the Indian Ocean to the Med, instead of all the way around Africa. Once the canal opened the introduction and thriving of new species was inevitable, as was the native species being displaced. It happens all the time all over the world and has nothing to do with climate change.
This is fairly minor. Have a look at how the Lionfish has invaded American and Caribbean waters.
