Ocean acidification illustrated by David Fierstein (c) 2007 MBARI Ocean acidification is intimately connected to our changing climate and as important as global warming. We're just not hearing about it in the news enough because the media has all but ignored the problem. So we must make the case that more scientists ought to be to be exploring the threat, educating the public as to why it matters, and implementing effective policy to mitigate the impact of excess CO2 in our oceans (and everywhere else). My full post reviewing ocean acidification is now up over at Correlations.
