Here are some stats about GLOBAL WARMING brought to you by the Federation of American Scientists and ClimateAmerica:
Global sea temperatures have risen by 2.30045 degrees average over the past 15 years. Also accidity levels have gone up from an average of 7.985pH to 7.0015 and this may not seem like much nat all, but all the orgamisms that have evolved in very specific conditions are dying off and anything that isn't going extinct is developing health problems, mutations and high levels of toxins via bioaccumulation.
Also because of the increase in polution both in the air and oceans, many polutants have been acumulating in the oceans, including a suprisingly large amount of radioactive material. This dense material is sinking to the bottom, irradiationg and mutating all creatures along its fall.
Here is a graphic on accidity differential:
