This speaks, I think, to an important fact that doesn't get covered much: the world's oceans are not all warming in lockstep at the same rate. Some areas, like the North Sea in this case, or the Bay of Bengal, are warming much faster than average.

Guys, there’s no easy way to say this: traditional fish and chips could be a thing of the past.

According to a new study as sea temperatures continue to rise, traditional fish-and-chips fish like plaice and haddock will disappear in search of cooler waters.

In the last 40 years, the North Sea has warmed four times faster than the global average and researchers at the University of Exeter say it will rise a further 1.8 degrees over the next 50 years.

Louise Rutterford, a postgraduate researcher at the University of Exeter who carried out the study said, “Our study suggests that we will see proportionally less of some of the species we eat most of as they struggle to cope with warming condition in the North Sea.”
