From rising temperatures to the arrival of alien species such as the famous blue crab, the Mediterranean Sea is now in the grip of a profound metamorphosis. What are the causes of this sudden change? What are the effects on the ecosystem and the lives of those living around the basin? And, above all, how does one journalistically report a change in an ecosystem as it happens?
