The Mediterranean on the Brink: Why Mallorca Can No Longer Just Watch

Answer

Why is the Mediterranean warming so quickly around Mallorca?

The Mediterranean is especially vulnerable to climate change, and that is already being felt in Mallorca through warmer nights, hotter seasons and more stress on the coast. A warmer sea also affects fish populations, erosion and the risks linked to storms. For the island, this is not a distant issue but something that touches daily life, work and water resources.
