the dead zone in Oregon

MoJo Blog had a lot of informative entries yesterday, but the one that interested me most was this one on the study of a dead zone off the coast of Oregon:

Specifically, scientists studying a "dead zone" -- an oxygen-starved area of the ocean where marine life has vanished -- off the Oregon coast appear to have established a link between the phenomenon and shifts in ocean currents caused by climate change.

This affects us, people. How much longer will this administration ignore the environmental damage being done? I think it will be ignored until it is too late.
