"Spending £100m is just about feasible."

Animals are responding in various ways: moving to cooler areas or higher ground, changing the timing of key life events such as breeding and migration, or switching their body size.The research is published in the journal,

Temperatures in the seas around the UK and Ireland have soared in the past week with some areas now 4C warmer than normal, with potential implications for marine life and people going swimming.The heatwave is most intense off the west coast of Ireland as well as pockets off the coasts of Cornwall and Devon, according to scientists at the National Oceanography Centre and the Met Office.Sea temperatures in April and the first half of May were the highest recorded during those months since monitoring began 45 years ago.

Climate change is causing oceans to warm around the globe and is making marine heatwaves like this one more likely."It's super intense at the moment. The marine heatwave has really soared this week," says Dr Ségolène Berthou at the Met Office.

The entire west coast of the UK is now about 2.5C above average. A large portion of Scottish waters are 2-3C warmer than usual for the time of year.

In one location, just off Tyne and Tees, temperatures are 5C higher than average, according to the Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science.The report laid bare how much farmers rely on these new income streams.

More than one in four, 28%, reported income from actual farming was negative.In other words, they lost money growing food.

While Mr Collins salutes the enterprise farmers have shown, he says it is only happening because producing food is such an unreliable business.He said: "The finances aren't good, the margins are wafer thin. It's a lot of sawing for not much sawdust, as my grandfather used to say."
