The ocean absorbs approximately 90% of the excess heat generated by human activities, and marine heat waves are now occurring 50 times more frequently than in the 1980s. As ocean temperatures rise, oxygen levels decrease, creating 'dead zones' where marine life cannot survive. Mobile species like fish migrate to cooler waters, while stationary organisms die, causing entire ecosystems to shift and collapse.
