The discovery of a Caretta caretta nest on May 10 in Lagana Bay, on the island of Zakynthos, has confirmed predictions that climate change will bring the turtles' nesting season forward, starting it earlier in the spring, the sea turtle protection society Archelon said in an announcement on Thursday. 

The European Commission brought infringement proceedings in the EU's highest judicial body which ruled against Greece for the way it treats Careta Careta turtles on Zakynthos.
