These days, even shipwreck museums showcase evidence of climate change.
After diving recently among Key West's fabled ship-destroying barrier reefs, I immersed myself in exhibits from the Nuestra Senora de Atocha, the fabled Spanish galleon that foundered during a ferocious hurricane in 1622. The Mel Fisher Maritime Museum now houses many of the gold, silver, emeralds and artifacts that Mel and Deo Fisher's archeological team recovered after finding the wreck in 1985.
