Warming of oceans due to climate change is unstoppable, say US scientists

13. We're noticing this here on Cape Cod.

There is a 6 mile wide stretch of land here in Truro between the Bay and the ocean. Used to be, the ocean was so cold, you needed a wet suit to stay in the water for any length of time. Starfish clung to the rocks and horseshoe crabs used to come up to the shoreline at low tide. Now, the ocean is warmer than the bay used to be, erosion is at a galloping pace (Cape should be gone in a few centuries), the starfish are gone, as are the sand dollars and horseshoe crabs. Seals are coming in summer by the thousands, and great white sharks, which feed on seals, are now seen here frequently. They were practically unknown here twenty years ago.
