Japanese Salmons Feel the Heat

Global warming is not purely about seeing polar ice caps melting one by one and reading of disasters that have befallen most parts of the world. Remember, global warming also extends as far as manifesting the welfare of the creatures living along the shore lines and for this Asian country, it is feeling the heat of impact of global warming as far as their salmon industry is concerned.
Just like humans, sea creatures as the Japanese salmon will feel the effects of the global warming trauma. Remember that they are living in the lines of nature’s affected anatomy and known to be prime resources for a growing Asian tiger’s economy, salmon may soon be seen as the next problem that has to be dealt with.
(Source) Based on a report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) that was released just this past November, projections are that the Earth’s average temperature could rise by as much as 43.52 degrees Fahrenheit by the end of the century, which in turn would create unsuitable river water temperatures for young salmon to mature. In the meantime, in some areas of Japan, there’s been a noticeable decline in numbers of salmon making their way back rivers after being out to sea, where they spend about 2 to 7 years of their life.
