Can you point out regions of the oceans where water so hot that sea life can barely exist?

  It's not the hot water per se. It's the lack of oxygen. There are many dead zones. https://oceanservice.noaa.gov/facts/deadzone.html https://oceanservice.noaa.gov/facts/deadzone.html

    Dead zones are usually caused by algae blooms or similar aren't they?

      Why isn't the algae bloom being cleaned up by a commensurate zooplankton bloom?

(emphasis on your words again) I think this should demonstrate to everyone how disingenuous you're being. Also, downvoting doesn't make you right, nor does it stop the planet from boiling. ;)
