Billions of Snow Crabs Have Vanished From The Sea: Is It Time To Repent?
My first thought: Can you blame them? If there were ever a time to go extinct, I would say right now is second only to the Dark Ages. My second thought: Is this God/the aliens firing off a warning shot? If I wanted to get humanity’s attention, doing something drastic that affects everyone’s Red Lobster experience would absolutely be my play. Doesn’t matter which of the 719 international locations you show up to; the menus will be missing something, leaving patrons everywhere, regardless of their race, religion or origin, with a snow crab-sized hole in their hearts.
My third thought: Did we push the Deadliest Catch guys too far? Is it possible that, in demanding 16+ seasons of high-octane crustacean-wrangling content, we inadvertently caused these crews to overfish Alaskan waters, thus resulting in the near extinction of an entire species?
According to scientists, overfishing is actually not the root cause for the disappearance of 7 billion snow crabs… but rising water temperatures might be. The warmer the oceans get, the more inhospitable they become; the more inhospitable they become, the less snow crabs are able to reproduce. In short: the snow crabs are saying, “It is simply too hot to f-ck”.
The rise in water temperatures is just one of the many drawbacks of man-made climate change. Now, before 50% of you furiously click out of this blog… let’s take a pause, allow our bl-ood pressure levels to return to normal and consider this:
Global warming is not coming solely for the vegans, the Prius drivers, the they/them/theirs, the city of Portland and the Biden voters; it’s coming for all of us. Hurricane Ian was a testament to that. If we don’t start treating Mother Earth a tad nicer, she will take the state of Florida and sweep that b-tch right out to sea. If we don’t take climate change seriously, it’s only a matter of time before the Sunshine State becomes the new, anti-woke Lost Continent of Atlantis…Taking Ron Desantis, no State Income Tax, Mar-a-Lago (possibly some classified government documents) and 29 electoral college votes with it.
So you see, it doesn’t really matter if you’re into saving the planet or exploiting it for its natural resources… If we use it all up, past the point of no return, then nobody wins… Not the tree-huggers, not the Ford F-150 owners and certainly not the snow crabs (who really just want slightly cooler water temperatures to bone in).
Think about it…
