It is a direct impact of excessive production of CO2. 25% of total atmospheric CO2 is produced by humans. The ocean acidity has increased by the last 250 years, but by 2100, it may shoot up by 150%. The main impact is on shellfish and plankton in the same way as human osteoporosis.
Groups that are concerned about acidification need to collaborate to battle Carbon and get this issue into the media:
Shellfish industries – which have already lost jobs and business from ocean acidification.
Island nations – who rely on reefs for food, to shelter their coastlines, and because their islands are built on coral.
Youth who want a future.
Renewable energy companies – including solar, wind, and hydro.
The whole climate change movement – as carbon pollution is the enemy in both acidification and climate change.
