Italy’s culture minister is calling for a man to be “identified and sanctioned” after he was filmed allegedly carving his and his fiancée’s names into the Colosseum in Rome.

Gennaro Sangiuliano tweeted on Monday: “I consider it very serious, unworthy and a sign of great incivility that a tourist defaces one of the most famous places in the world, a historical heritage (site) such as the Colosseum, to carve the name of his fiancée.”

“I hope that whoever carried out this act will be identified and sanctioned according to our laws,” he continued.

The minister’s tweet included a blurred image of the young tourist, as well as a video that appeared to show him using keys to carve letters into one of the walls of the nearly 2,000-year-old amphitheater.

The inscription read “Ivan+Haley 23,” according to Italian news agency ANSA.

The alleged incident took place on Friday, and police were alerted by videos appearing on social media, ANSA reported.

If convicted of a crime, the man could face a fine of at least €15,000 ($16,360) or up to five years in prison, the news agency said.

A similar incident occurred in 2020, when an Irish tourist was accused of vandalizing the Colosseum, after security staff spotted him allegedly carving his initials into the ancient structure and reported him to the police.

The Indochinese leopard is dangerously close to becoming extinct in Cambodia, according to wild cat conservationists, who spent more than a decade looking for the creatures and found just 35.

According to a report from Panthera, a global wild cat conservation organization, researchers set up hundreds of cameras in two protected areas in Cambodia’s Eastern Plains Landscape between 2009 and 2019.

During that period, they only spotted 35 adult Indochinese leopards, and when they returned in 2021, not a single leopard could be seen.

That prompted the scientists to conclude the species was no longer viable to reproduce for the next generation, according to the report, compiled with Oxford University’s WildCRU and published in Biological Conservation.

Historically, the Indochinese leopard was found throughout Indochina – spanning Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam and parts of southeastern China – but almost all the territory they once roamed has disappeared due to human encroachment.

During the period of the study, human activity in Cambodia surged 20-fold and the likelihood of getting caught in lethal traps soared 1,000-fold, the report said.

Poaching in the region is driven by a high demand for wild meat, which is considered to be a delicacy or status symbol of middle and upper-class urban consumers in Cambodia, the report noted.

Hunters also target the wild cats for their thick, spotted coats, and habitat loss has caused the leopards’ prey populations to decline dramatically.

The World Wide Fund estimates there are some 12 million snares dotting eastern Indochina, adversely affecting 700 mammal species in the region including the Asian elephant and Sumatran rhinoceros.

Cambodia, which has been ruled by Prime Minister Hun Sen for more than three decades, has long suffered from entrenched corruption. Transparency International ranks it at 150 out of 180 countries in its annual Corruptions Perceptions Index, towards the very bottom of the table.

The Southeast Asian country has also suffered some of the highest rates of deforestation of any nation since the 1970s, according to the Global Forest Watch, which estimates that Cambodia has lost about 557,000 hectares of tree cover in protected area between 2001 and 2018.

Activists often risk their lives to protect Cambodia’s forests, and in 2022, five journalists who were covering a huge deforestation operation in southern Cambodia, were violently arrested, according to Reporters Without Borders.

No consolidated conservation initiative targeting Indochinese leopards exists due to a lack of funding, and despite ramped up law enforcement against poaching by local authorities over the past decade, the scale of the illegal wildlife trade is unprecedented, the report added.

“Without the global community’s injection of expeditious resources to prevent the Indochinese leopard from disappearing in the last two remaining strongholds, we will lose this unique subspecies from the planet forever,” said Susana Rostro-García, Panthera conservation scientist and lead author of the report.

While leopards are vanishing from Cambodia, their numbers in the wild along the Thailand-Myanmar border are unknown and are likely less than 900, Rostro-García added.

Gareth Mann, Panthera’s leopard program director, said: “It is disheartening to see the long-overlooked leopard follow the same fate of the tiger in Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam.”

Punishing hunters alone aren’t enough to put an end to the loss of wildlife, as researchers called on nationwide efforts to proactively reduce the consumption of game meat.

“Just as Indochina now serves as ground zero for tiger poaching and conservation, it is also where the global and conservation community must fully invest our efforts to save the leopard, hand-in-hand with the governments of Thailand, Malaysia and Myanmar.”

The leopard species is listed as “vulnerable” on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, while the Indochinese leopard subspecies is classified as “critically endangered.”

Residents of El Geneina, the capital of war-torn West Darfur, are struggling to bury their dead as violence rages across the city.

Activists say 500 bodies across the city have been identified, and that they believe “thousands” more remain unburied on streets and inside homes.

The Darfur Bar Association said that the bodies of those killed in the city “are still scattered in the streets and inside homes, public facilities and mosques,” and that the majority of the population has left the city, an independent Sudanese media outlet, Radio Dabanga, said on its website.

Residents and civil society groups also described bodies left in the streets earlier this month, saying many could not be collected for burial due to heavy fighting in the city.

Across Sudan, at least 3,000 people have been killed since conflict broke out on April 15, the country’s Minister of Health Haitham Ibrahim said in an interview on Saudi al-Hadath television on Saturday. Fighting erupted in mid-April between Sudan’s Armed Forces and its Rapid Support Forces paramilitary group.

Information on casualties from Darfur is limited due to the communication blackout, Ibrahim also said.

Abuse for those who flee

People fleeing El Geneina to find refuge in nearby Chad have also faced “shocking abuse” on the way, including killings, Kamal Al Din, a Darfur activist told Radio Dabanga in a radio broadcast.

Around 15,000 Sudanese refugees have fled West Darfur state and reached the Chadian town of Adré over a four day period with thousands more desperately trying to escape the area, Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) said Tuesday.

“Many of the arrivals report seeing people shot and killed as they tried to escape West Darfur’s capital, El Geneina,” a statement by MSF said.

MSF did not name the party responsible for the killing, but Kamal Al Din blamed the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) for the attacks on those fleeing.

General Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, or Hemedti, the head of the RSF, has denied accusations of responsibility for the violence, and pointed the finger at the Sudanese Armed Forces, for fueling what he presents as a “tribal” conflict.

Reports of atrocities committed by RSF fighters and their allied militias, clearly identified by their uniforms, are consistent across dozens of testimonies. They include arbitrary killings, the wholesale destruction of vital civilian infrastructure, the looting of homes and hospitals, and even mass rapes.

Users on a popular Facebook group for El Geneina asked for information on family members inside the city and if communications have been restored

“Even if [communications] are restored, is there anyone left to call?,” one user wrote in response to a question on telephone networks.

Wrexham’s Hollywood owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney are part of a new investment group that is taking a 24% equity stake in Formula One outfit Alpine, the team’s parent company, Renault, announced on Monday.

The investment group also includes Otro Capital and RedBird Capital Partners. As well as Reynolds and McElhenney, fellow actor Michael B. Jordan is a co-investor in Maximum Effort Investments – led by the “Deadpool” star – which will bring “expertise” to the new group to boost its media and marketing strategy, according to Laurent Rossi, CEO of Alpine.

The team announced that the deal will see $218 million (€200 million) injected into the British-based team, with the statement saying Alpine is now valued at $900 million.

The investment will “accelerate Alpine’s growth plans and sporting ambitions in F1,” according to the statement.

Alpine are currently fifth in this year’s F1 constructors’ championship.

“This association is an important step to enhance our performance at all levels,” said Rossi.

“First, Otro Capital, RedBird Capital Partners and Maximum Effort Investments, as international players with strong track record in the sports industry, will bring their recognized expertise to boost our media and marketing strategy, essential to support our sporting performance over the long term.

“Second, the incremental revenue generated will in turn be reinvested in the team, in order to further accelerate our ‘Mountain Climber’ plan, aimed at catching up with top teams in terms of state-of-the-art facilities and equipment,” added Rossi.

Alpine’s ‘Mountain Climber’ plan is the team’s schedule to be contesting for championship titles within the space of 100 races, starting in 2022.

The group of investors have prior experience of working in sports. RedBird has been involved with the Fenway Sports Group – the owners of Premier League team Liverpool and Major League Baseball giants, the Boston Red Sox – as well as the Dallas Cowboys in the NFL and Toulouse in French football. RedBird also bought Italian soccer giants AC Milan for $1.2 billion last year.

Reynolds and McElhenney are the co-owners of Welsh soccer side, Wrexham. Since taking over the club in 2021, Wrexham has become a subject of global interest.

As well as a hit Disney+ documentary, the club secured promotion to the Football League in April, ending a 15-year stay in non-league football.

The statement says Reynolds and McElhenney’s Maximum Effort Investments will provide “successful sports and media experience and operational expertise in building high-growth companies.”

Ultramarathon runner Courtney Dauwalter crushed the women’s course record at the Western States 100-mile race in California, taking more than an hour off the previous best time.

Dauwalter finished the Western States 100 – the world’s oldest 100-mile race – in 15 hours, 29 minutes and 34 seconds, almost 80 minutes faster than Ellie Greenwood’s record set in 2012. The race was first run in 1974.

“I just kept asking [my legs] to do one more mile for me and they kept responding, so I was very thankful for that,” Dauwalter told iRunFar about the last 20 miles of the race.

“I was definitely, though, deep in the pain cave and really focused on every single step, every single second.”

Cooler weather contributed to faster times at this year’s Western States 100, which started in the early hours of Saturday morning in Olympic Valley, California.

Snow covered much of the initial stages of the course before runners descended into a recently unshaded section scorched by last year’s Mosquito Fire.

After running with fellow American Katie Schide, Dauwalter started pulling away around the 30-mile mark, steadily eating away at Greenwood’s course record.

Covering 18,000 feet of climbing and almost 23,000 feet of descent across Californian trails, the race finishes on a high school running track in the city of Auburn in Placer County.

“I couldn’t believe when the track suddenly showed up and you make that turn, I was like: We did it! We’re here!” Dauwalter told iRunFar.

“Because that was the moment where I let myself actually believe that we had finished and we were about to be able to stop moving.”

Dauwalter, who is set to defend her title at the Hardrock 100 in Colorado in three weeks’ time, also won the Western States 100 in 2018, though her time this year was nearly two hours faster.

Schide finished in second on Saturday in 16 hours, 43 minutes and 45 seconds, which was also quicker than Greenwood’s previous course record.

In the men’s event, the United Kingdom’s Tom Evans won in 14 hours, 40 minutes and 22 seconds – the fourth-fastest time in the history of the race.

Ruoning Yin had yet to even start playing golf when Shanshan Feng clinched the 2012 Women’s PGA Championship to become the first Chinese player to win a major.

Just 11 years on at the same tournament on Sunday, a 20-year-old Yin carded a nerveless final round to join her compatriot in the history books as China’s second major champion.

The world No. 25 rolled home her fourth birdie of the day on the 18th hole at Baltusrol Golf Club in Springfield, New Jersey to cap a bogey-free four-under 67 for the round and eight-under overall, one stroke ahead of Japan’s Yuka Saso.

Feng called time on her professional career in August 2022, retiring just before her 32nd birthday with a major, 10 LPGA Tour victories, and a former world No. 1 ranking under her belt.

For Yin, who sealed her first LPGA Tour win in April, that’s the benchmark.

“She’s definitely the goal that I’m chasing,” Yin told reporters Sunday.

“She is the person who inspired me the most.”

Hoop dreams

After picking up the clubs at 10 and a half years old, it was not long before Yin was enjoying a prolific junior career, yet she almost took different path entirely.

A “huge” basketball fan and long-time Steph Curry admirer, a young Yin was ready to choose the court over the course had it not been for one small detail.

“I always told my mom, if I’m maybe 10 centimetres higher, I would probably just go play basketball, not golf,” Yin said.

A glittering amateur journey followed, with Yin rattling off nine titles in 2019 and rising to 64th in the world amateur golf rankings before turning professional in 2020.

Yin made the jump in historic fashion, announcing her arrival on the China LPGA Tour with a record-breaking three straight wins.

Her rookie season on the LPGA Tour in 2022, having secured membership through a fourth-place finish at the Q-Series, proved more challenging. Three straight wins off the bat were replaced by three straight missed cuts, as Yin failed to make to the weekend seven times in her first nine LPGA starts as a professional.

Yet a season-best tied-fourth finish at the Dana Open in September signalled a turning point, as a string of top-20 performances followed before a maiden LPGA triumph at the LA Open in April.

“First thing, I think my English improved a lot,” Yin said Sunday.

“Second, my game is more mature. Before I’d just go straight at the flag every shot, and right now I think I play smarter.

“My coach always said, ‘You’re such a good ball striker. You just need to play smart and focus on your line, on your target, and you’re going to be fine.’

“I think we’re doing good right now.”

Nerveless

That maturity and ball-striking was on full display at Baltusrol, as Yin opened with a 67 that included a birdie-eagle finish.

After a disappointing second round 73, Yin bounced back with a 69 on Saturday to start the final round three shots off the lead.

From the outset, the 20-year-old was a picture of consistency, missing just two fairways and going 18-for-18 on greens in regulation despite the disruption of an inclement weather delay.

Saso left little room for error, bogeying just once all day on the 16th hole and similarly closing with a birdie, but Yin would not be denied.

“I was on the 18th tee and I saw the leaderboard, and I know I have a one-shot lead,” said Yin.

“After the tee shot, I saw Yuka make an incredible birdie here, and I know I have to make birdie at this hole to win the championship. I’m glad I did it.”

Her closing birdie effort was by no means a gimmie either, but the Chinese star rolled home coolly before celebrating with an emphatic fist pump.

Yet celebrations will be wrapped quickly. The next major on the calendar looms with the US Women’s Open at Pebble Beach in California on July 6, followed by the Evian Championship in France on July 27.

Even before the dust had settled on her first major win, Yin was eyeing the next.

“[It’s] Just one tournament,” she said.

“I think there’s more to come.”

Summer is notorious for producing punishing heat waves, often referred to as heat domes.

A heat dome occurs when a ridge of high pressure builds over an area and doesn’t move for up to a week or more.

High pressure results in fair weather with lots of sunshine and very few clouds. It also indicates sinking air, and when air sinks, it warms – causing temperatures to rise.

The “dome” is created because the air can’t escape. Then, temperatures keep warming, often to uncomfortable or even dangerous levels.

Most heat records are set within a heat dome. And the climate crisis is expected to make them more frequent – and even hotter.

Notorious heat events can kill

• Europe, 2003: Among the deadliest heat waves in history, an estimated 30,000 casualties were recorded amid scorching conditions in July and August. Temperatures hit as high as 104 degrees Fahrenheit, with warmth overnight as well. France, which normally has temperatures in the 80s at that time of year, was in the 90s and triple digits for the first three weeks of August.

• India, 2015: More than 2,000 people died over several weeks as temperatures soared to a shocking 118 degrees in some places. It was so hot in Delhi, roads began to melt.

• Chicago, 1995: More than 700 people died in the metro area as a heat dome settled over the Midwest. Temperatures topped 100 degrees but felt closer to 125 because of the heat index. Many died because overnight temperatures stayed warm, so bodies couldn’t recover from daytime heat.

How the climate crisis will worsen heat waves

The climate crisis is expected to increase exposure to dangerous heat index levels by 50% to 100% in much of the tropics and by up to 10 times across much of the globe, according to a 2022 study published in the journal Nature Communications Earth & Environment.

Even a small increase in global average temperature can lead to significant increases in the hottest extremes, which are seen during strong and persistent heat domes.

Places such as Afghanistan, Papua New Guinea and Central America – including Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua – have been targeted as “hot spots” for high-risk heat waves, a 2023 study in the journal Nature Communications found. These regions are particularly vulnerable due to their fast-growing populations and limited access to health care and energy supplies, which undermines their resilience to extreme temperatures, according to the report.

In 2023 alone, several jaw-dropping high temperature records fell across the globe:

• In South Texas, Del Rio hit 115 degrees on June 22. This new all-time high temperature broke the record set two days earlier at 113 during an unusually strong heat dome for the month of June.

• Shanghai recorded its highest May temperature in more than 100 years on May 29.

• In Vietnam’s northern district of Tuong Duong, the heat on May 6 reached around 111.6 degrees – the highest temperature ever recorded in the country, weather historian Maximiliano Herrera said. On the same day, Thailand saw the hottest ever temperature recorded in Bangkok: 105.8 degrees.

• Siberia set dozens of records in June as temperatures climbed above 100 degrees during a heat dome that formed especially far north.

Heat waves not only endanger health but also contribute to extreme drought and wildfires. Human-caused climate change has exacerbated the hot and dry conditions that allow wildfires to ignite and grow.

In recent years, some of these fires have exhibited extreme fire behavior, including alarming rotational patterns, creating their own clouds and wafting smoke hundreds of miles away, leading to air quality issues.

Bloody Marys have been a staple of brunch menus as long as there have been brunch menus. But a new wave of bars from New York to Hong Kong has been trying to diversify their cocktail lists by including savory drinks inspired by everything from Waldorf salad to roast chicken.

Is putting a Thai beef salad tipple on a bar menu just a way to be subversive and stand out from the pack? Or is there genuine interest in these kinds of drinks?

Margaret Eby, deputy food editor at the Philadelphia Inquirer, believes that increased interest in savory cocktails is directly connected to the growing popularity of mocktails.

“The feedback is that every non-alcoholic standard drink that you get is really sweet,” says Eby, who jokingly refers to some savory cocktails as “hard soups.”

She points out that many staple cocktail ingredients, like fruit juices and simple syrups, normally have their sweet flavors offset by alcohol. But when you cut out the vodka or whiskey, the sweetness stands out a lot more.

And as global food price fluctuations make some ingredients more expensive or difficult to find, Eby thinks it’s good practice for restaurant and bar owners to branch out. With savory cocktails, she says, “you get to use a lot more of the supermarket than you would necessarily before.”

Talking tomatoes

The Bloody Mary may be the best-known savory cocktail, but tomatoes were interpreted in a very different way to create a drink called the Tomatini.

The drink was created for Mediterranean restaurant group LPM as a way to incorporate three core menu ingredients – lemons, tomatoes, and vinegar – into a beverage.

Originally introduced in 2010, the cocktail contains Ketel One vodka, white balsamic vinegar, black pepper, lemon juice and cherry tomatoes. On the rim of the glass, where it’s more common to spot a maraschino cherry or slice of lemon, there’s a tiny, perfectly round tomato.

“However, on trying it, they realized that the flavor is very delicate and fell in love.”

Presentation helps too. The drink is served in a coupe, instead of a martini glass, and is a pinkish hue with foam on top.

The Tomatini is now a staple at LPM locations around the world, including Miami, Dubai and London.

Expanding the options

Still, tomatoes – technically fruits, though they’re often lumped in with vegetables – aren’t the only ingredient that can turn a cocktail savory.

Hong Kong bar The Savory Project, which opened in May 2023, celebrates a range of ingredients not typically spotted on cocktail menus, such as beef jerky and corn husks.

“We’re not shy of using ingredients that are not common in drinks,” explains co-owner Jay Khan. “For example, using beef, using different types of fungi, like mushrooms and stuff. We play around with whatever we can think of and then try and replicate that into a drink.”

Khan previously founded Coa, a tequila and mezcal-centric bar that was named the best in Asia in 2022.

Seeing Hong Kong locals grow to enjoy these Mexican alcohols and the saltier, umami-tinged pairings was one of the reasons he chose to focus on savory drinks with his next project.

He and co-founder Ajit Gurung split the Savory Project menu into two sections, alcoholic and nonalcoholic, and use illustrations of major flavors – a mushroom, a clam, a leek – next to drink names to make them more approachable.

“We can create super adventurous drinks, but what’s the point if the people who’re drinking it do not understand the flavor that they’re drinking?” Khan says.

Meeting halfway

But not every bar has decided to go all-in on savory cocktails.

New York City hot spot Double Chicken Please has two areas – a front room with more traditional drinks and a back room with experimental cocktails for more adventurous guests.

In the back room, nine core cocktails are listed on the menu broken down into three sections: “appetizers,” “main courses,” and “desserts,” just like a food menu.

In the first group, there are drinks inspired by Waldorf salad and Japanese cold noodles; in the middle section there’s a cocktail called Cold Pizza that contains parmesan cheese.

One of the menu’s standout items is something that Tako Chang, Double Chicken Please’s manager of brand marketing and communications, calls a “reverse pairing.”

Red Eye Gravy is inspired by the popular Southern meal of country ham with gravy poured on top. But here, the roles are switched: the gravy – in this case, a mix of Irish whisky, coffee, butter and mushroom – is the centerpiece, while a piece of prosciutto is just a garnish instead of the star.

Double Chicken Please was recognized by the World’s 50 Best as the top bar in North America last year. The surge of attention means that more visitors have, as Chang puts it, “done their homework” before they come in and try anything.

Some request a specific cocktail they’ve seen on Instagram, while others have studied the menu in advance before making a reservation.

One thing is clear, though: non-sweet alcoholic drinks aren’t a gimmick.

“The savory cocktail is definitely growing,” says Chang. “There’s no doubt.”

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has dismissed concerns that a lone Russian diplomat was allegedly squatting on a previously planned Moscow embassy building site, describing the man as “some bloke standing on a blade of grass.”

The site, originally slated for a new Russian embassy in the Australian capital of Canberra, lies directly adjacent to the country’s parliament. Australia’s government last week terminated its lease on the grounds of national security.

That has subsequently set off a diplomatic row with Moscow which has vowed to challenge the decision.

Multiple Australian media outlets have since reported a bizarre twist to the diplomatic dust up.

A man, believed to be Russian diplomat, has remained at the site in defiance of the move. Images published by media showed the mystery man dressed in a puffer jacket and jeans smoking a cigarette.

Albanese was asked by journalists on Friday to comment on reports that a Russian diplomat had taken up residence in a shed.

“The national security threat that was represented by a Russian Embassy on site is not the same as some bloke standing on a blade of grass on the site – that, we don’t see really as a threat to our national security,” he replied.

When asked about whether the Russian diplomat would be declared persona non grata and deported, Albanese replied, “We’re confident of our position that it will be resolved.”

Home affairs minister Clare O’Neil also weighed in, echoing Albanese’s phrasing and saying that “a bloke sitting on a site is not a national security threat to this country.”

The Russian embassy has declined to comment, Reuters reported Friday.

If the man is a diplomat, he would be covered by diplomatic immunity, presenting an extra layer of complexity for any law enforcement action to remove him.

The now-scrapped site for the proposed Russian embassy at Yarralumla sits about 400 meters from Australia’s parliamentary precinct.

Australia has sided with Western allies in support of Kyiv since the Russian invasion of Ukraine began more than a year ago. It has condemned Moscow for its “illegal and immoral” military operations.

On Friday, Australia’s home affairs minister said Moscow had told the Australian government that it would take the matter to court.

“The Russian Federation has informed the Commonwealth of its intention to commence legal proceedings in the High Court, in which they will challenge the validity of the legislation on constitutional grounds,” she said.

Albanese said Russia’s frustration was anticipated, but he was confident of his government’s legal position, with work to formalize possession of the site under way.

Russia secured the lease to the land from the Australian government in 2008. Three years later, it was granted approval to build its new embassy there.

Albanese said it was “a different time” since the lease was granted in 2008. “What my government’s responsible for is now, and my government has responded,” he said.

Climate change may have stimulated a plankton bloom that caused thousands of dead fish to wash up along a roughly 4 kilometer (2.5 mile) stretch of beach in Thailand’s southern Chumphon province on Thursday, an expert said.

Thon Thamrongnawasawat, deputy dean of the Faculty of Fisheries at Kasetsart University, attributed the fish deaths to the bloom – a natural occurrence that lowers oxygen levels in the water and causes fish to suffocate.

“Various natural phenomena, such as coral bleaching or plankton bloom, have naturally occurred for thousands to tens of thousands of years. However, when global warming occurs, it intensifies and increases the frequency of existing phenomena,” he said.

According to local authorities, plankton blooms happen once or twice a year and typically last two to three days.

Officials have collected seawater for further assessment and analysis.

Worldwide, marine heatwaves have become a growing concern this year.

Global sea surface temperatures for April and May were the highest on record for those months, according to the British Met Office, which said the cause is both the arrival of the natural climate phenomenon El Niño, which has a warming impact globally, as well as human-caused climate change, which means higher temperatures for oceans and land.

This month, thousands of dead fish washed up on beaches in Texas, and experts are warning of algal blooms along the British coast as a result of rising sea temperatures.

In Southern California, hundreds of dolphins and sea lions have been washing up on beaches dead or sick, amid a toxic algal bloom. While California’s algal blooms were caused more by strong coastal upwelling than high temperatures, scientists say climate change likely to increase toxic algal blooms, as some thrive in warm water.

“Whether it’s Australia and places like the Great Barrier Reef or even places around England which are experiencing quite bad marine heatwaves at the moment, it’s really going to be detrimental to those local ecosystems,” said Sarah Perkins-Kirkpatrick, a climate scientist with the University of New South Wales in Australia.
