But that would mean the death of crustaceans which fail to adapt. Eventually progressing into a larger motion.

How about no

BTW this doesn't even need modelling as global warming theories do. It is replicable scientific fact proven in aquariums of marine scientists over and over.

450ppm - the limit nature is setting us to drive Hummers, fly in planes, go to shop in SUVs, run our houses full of lights all night, watch plasma TVs....

Clearly we need to go solar, wind and geothermal rapidly for power supply, electrify all land transport and save petrol for air travel, shipping, big agriculture and mining only.

Good topic, good format overall. But your emphasis is wrong. Not just because we should have a plants-based diet for the planet's sake, but even if you DO eat seafood, no having seafood is the LEAST of your problems if acidification goes on unabated, as your own film said, but said it too quietly and too briefly. You go keep harping on "no seafood to eat" but should focus MOST of message on the entire life web in danger. You have talent, maybe re-do and post improved version? Peace.

I will only believe you when I next go for a swim in the ocean & I completely disolve. Until then I think it does not matter. So long as there is seafood available in the shops. And there's tonnes & tones of the stuff. Literally mountains of seafood. Probably more than the whole of Mt Everest. And that 's only the tip of the iceberg of seafood still to be dredged from the inexhaustible OCEANS. Oceans are huge. We could never eat more than the sharks do.

It took millions of years for the build-up you mention to take place. Organisms can adapt well over that span of time.

We're pouring out CO2 of these amounts in decades - no time to adapt.

That makes your argument moot as far as I can tell.

OMG!!! That was just too awesome! I had to do a paper for my environmental science class; & I chose to write about the effects of CO2 on the oceans (specifically acidification). Your video like simplified everything I read about it & made it entertaining! That isn't just awesome, that is freakin' AMAZING! Bravo barely covers it; I *loved* this video!

wow i cant believe my video has 1k views and rated 4.5 stars, im the best!

Beautiful work! Most people can relate to the food they eat better than the ocean realm they may not ever experience or understand. I agree with econdemocracy, too. rrichd911, check the time frame for that CO2 composition. A lot has happended evolutionarily since then. OCEAN ACIDIFICATION is a real threat, and we can do things at home to help. Electricity counts for most CO2 emissions in the US. Change your lifestyle in positive ways for the planet and the children who will inherit it.

[rrichar911]

The theory is logically flawed. c02 used to comprise 95% of the earths atmosphere, so if that turns the ocean into acid, and the species can't stand that, the the ocean species would not exist in the first place.
