Humans polluting the oceans makes fish dumber »

I think some guy in a thick, very old book once said that it’s better to be a fisher of men than to give a man a fish and multiply it to feed thousands. Right?
Anyway, fishing sucks, but destroying the habitats of the fish who still remain is worse. And that’s exactly what is happening today: man-made increases in seawater carbon dioxide levels cause fish to lose their “handedness,” or preference for turning one way or another.
Poor dumb fish! Not-so-poor dumb humans who keep fighting EPA regulations, among other obvious mistakes!
