By focusing on the Gorgonia, one of the most emblematic and significant corals in the Mediterranean, Ribes and Coma have found that seas have their seasons, too - and with equally dire effects. Between 1974 and 2006, summer conditions in the Mediterranean expanded by 40%, meaning the season has grown on average one day longer each year. For the Gorgonia and other sensitive suspension invertebrates - the term refers to the organisms' habit of feeding on particles suspended in the water...
...resulting physiological stress, says Ribes, explains why there have been so many instances of massive mortality among suspension invertebrates in the past few decades. "Even though they're normally vulnerable during summer, these organisms can survive the average season. But when the season becomes abnormal, when you have these atypically high temperatures for longer periods of time, they don't have the energy resources...

...consumer culture invites us to want more than we can ever have; a culture of thrift invites us to be grateful for whatever we can get. So we pass the time by tending our gardens and patching our safety nets and debating whether, years from now, this season will be remembered for what we lost, or all that we found...
