Today (World Oceans Day), Grist has an article up about the rise in jellyfish, a problem for both fishermen and swimmers. The article postulates that the increase is due to both overfishing and climate change. As we make the oceans less hospitable for a number of species - and overfish many other species - the jellyfish have less predators and less competition for resources. The author calls them the "cockroaches of the sea."
I've got a simple solution to this problem: more Chinese people.
