This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I literally already said the answer to that in my original comment.
I think that what SpaceNoodle is trying to say is that the decrease in ocean salinity is correlated to a decrease in fresh water, so even though salinity is dropping, adaptations need to be made because we will run out of fresh water.
But why male models?
Sorry, I meant where else.
Uhh, no you didn't? At least, not the way I interpret it.
It looks like you were saying "oceans are getting less salty, and therefore this adaptation is less needed". But @SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world was saying "the reason they're getting less salty is because fresh water is becoming more scarce, and therefore the adaptations are more needed".
