Speciile invazive proliferează într-o Marea Mediterană transformată de încălzirea globală

Pepis, a fisherman in Cyprus, captures lionfish to combat invasive species in the Mediterranean. Scientists report a rapid increase in non-native species due to climate change and the Suez Canal's opening. Over 1,000 non-indigenous species now inhabit the sea, threatening local biodiversity and fishing economies. Efforts are underway to promote the consumption of invasive species like lionfish and pufferfish, which could help mitigate their impact. Researchers are also exploring potential uses for these species beyond food, including cosmetics and supplements.
