Rising sea temps in Mediterranean will kill fish off

Well, I was looking for news about the Embassy explosion, but I found this article about fish.

“The fish in the Mediterranean, especially the sea bream that we have studied – as they are the most popular type in fish farms – ideally live in temperatures of 18-22C,” said Michailidis.
“Above 26C, fish cannot breath well and do not take in enough oxygen,” he added. “When the temperature rises above 29C their cardiac system does not operate well and there is an increased rate of death.”
Scientists have also identified the increasing amount of carbon dioxide in seawater, which makes it more acidic, as a threat to fish."
