Climate Change Hits Home - Coastal Dead Zones

This is part a series of videos called "Climate Change Hits Home," demonstrating the immediate impacts of global warming in our backyards. They're also featured on LinkTV. This video shows how climate change is contributing to coastal "dead zones," areas where no plants or animals can live, by depleting oxygen beneath the surface and warming the ocean. A warming world means warmer waters, which can lead to more coastal dead zones.
