They haven't had to adapt at this rapid of pace. And this is also a human story. Yes the crabs may pull through but not in the abundance to provide us a food source.

There is no debate. When people say "climate-change deniers" they mean "rapid anthropogenic caused climate-change deniers"

A lot of what you're seeing are probably wasps (the yellow jacket being one variety).

Re:Amnesty International on the detention of Greenwald's partner

“When I was in Hong Kong, I spoke to my partner in Rio via Skype and told him I would send an electronic encrypted copy of the documents,” Greenwald said. “I did not end up doing it. Two days later his laptop was stolen from our house and nothing else was taken. Nothing like that has happened before. I am not saying it’s connected to this, but obviously the possibility exists.”
He said he didn't send it but implied he wanted to so it's very reasonable to suspect he did later at some point.

Just playing devils advocate here: Greenwald did previously state that he was going to send leaked information to his partner. So his partner isn't just his "loved one" in this. He would be one of the leakers.

Utter bs... Obama and Holder have stated repeatedly that "enhanced interrogation" IS torture.
