Research into the effects of global warming suggests that the size of fish around the world could shrink dramatically over the next few decades. Warmer ocean temperatures could lead to hundreds of types of fish losing up to 1/4 of their body weight. Here's Matt McGrath.
Although projections of global temperature rises show relatively small changes at the bottom of the oceans, the resulting impacts on fish body size are unexpectedly large, according to this research. As ocean temperature increases, so do the body temperatures and metabolic rates of the fish. This means they use more oxygen to stay alive. And according to the researchers, they have less available for growth.
A third opposition activist has died in Venezuela following a shooting on Saturday one week before the closest-fought presidential election in a decade.
