"Record-Breaking Sea Turtle Nests Face Grim Threat from Global Warming"

Sea turtles have broken nesting records on US beaches this year, with Florida reporting over 133,840 loggerhead turtle nests and at least 76,500 green turtle nests. However, the increase in nesting numbers conceals the threats these endangered species face from climate change. Rising sea levels, more powerful storms, and warmer temperatures are reducing beaches and affecting the survival of sea turtle hatchlings. Researchers warn that the rapid changes in environmental conditions may outpace the turtles' ability to adapt, jeopardizing their future. Conservation efforts are crucial to protect these vulnerable creatures from predators, human interference, and other challenges they face.
