When the oil well disaster happened, and people speculated that this could be significant in 'killing one third of the oceans', some 'pooh-poohed' the idea, since it didn't happen immediately. We have to remember that our time is not God's time and vice versa. This stuff is ongoing, and with something of this magnitude, it can push things along faster.

Yes, a nuclear war, or huge asteroid hitting the sea could do much more/quicker damage...but if the end result is the same in the long run, as my mom used to say, "same difference".
