Climate change is at it again and this time it`s affecting penguin populations in Antarctica. Warmer sea waters are to blame for the possible rapid decline of the Adélie penguins.

The population is expected to plummet by 60 percent at the end of this century. The main reason for their plummeting population is the warming of sea water. Even though the penguins cannot survive extremely cold temperatures, the warmer places too cannot let them live, explain experts, relying on global climate model projections and...
