Oceans Are Changing Color—And It’s Forcing Marine Life to Migrate Toward the Poles

The oceans' color changes are a visual representation of the broader impacts of climate change on marine ecosystems. Tropical waters are becoming bluer, while polar regions are greening, forcing marine life to migrate toward the poles. These shifts disrupt food webs, alter carbon sequestration, and impact global fisheries, demanding immediate action to preserve marine biodiversity.
