Fine but you seem to have missed my overall point that the cause doesn't matter in terms of the subject. The effect is happening regardless of your beliefs.

Exactly. Reality is not beholden to someone's incredulity. I think it's pretty funny that in this country (so far anyway), the climate change deniers are the ones most affected by...climate change. You can choose to ignore the findings of those studies mentioned in the article, but in a few more years things will be crystal clear.

Wow... and here I thought I was completely alone in that line of thinking. When the center of the Biomass is in New Hampshire and we're all spearfishing for Lion Fish people will say, "hmmm I wonder if we were wrong".

I could be wrong but I thought the lip fish problem was from escaped fish going back to Andrew. Fish that escaped from a damaged fish store supplier or something

Like I said. I could be wrong

I watched a very in depth documentary on them recently. It's because of water temperature and little else. They survive crazy depths. They enjoy warm acidic water. So as temperatures rise they're going to keep coming north. I'll see if I can find the documentary about it and post it. Was very in depth. Apparently there's coops selling them as food now to try and put commercial pressure on them but they're almost exclusively fished for with Spears.

But back on topic if the biomass is moving then states do need to figure out what to do about that.

Many articles about how they were introduced. They didn't just make their way here naturaly. Man made problem.

I was just coming here to correct myself. They WERE introduced to Florida either by hurricane or by negligent owners. 100% correct. Their spread however not only here but around the world IS being attributed to climate change.
