Climate Change: Warming Temperatures Could Kill Deep Ocean Life-Forms By 2100

Over 70 percent of Earth’s surface is covered by oceans, and it amounts to about 99 percent of all living space on the planet.

And yet, we are putting much of deep ocean life at the risk of extinction in less than 100 years from now, largely due to anthropogenic climate change.
