This is a direct result of excessive greenhouse gas emissions, including carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4), and the exploitation of natural resources for capitalistic gain. This can happen naturally, as growing trees and plants turn CO2 into biomass—this is the foundational premise of Natural Climate Solutions.

He was on to something And the lobsterman was correct: we can blame carbon emissions for ocean acidification and warming in the Gulf of Maine. Sea levels are rising. The Gulf of Maine Research Institute climate dashboard clearly indicates sea surface temperature anomalies.

First, new research has traced to just 90 fossil fuel firms the following percentages of anthropogenic carbon dioxide and methane emissions, global mean surface temperature (GMST), and global sea level rise (GSL): From 1880 to 2010: GHGs: 57% GMST: 42–50% GSL: 26–32%. From 1980 to 2010: GHGs: 43% GMST: 29–35% GSL: 11–14%.

In a 2022 press release introducing New York’s then-unprecedented Climate Superfund bill, one of the bill’s sponsors directly stated that the bill was inspired by source attribution research (specifically, research on carbon dioxide and methane emissions attributable to fossil fuel and cement producers).
