  • Dissolved CO2 makes acid.

    By 2100, at current rates of increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide, average ocean pH will drop 0.3 - 0.4 and be @ 7.8 with an increase in acidic H+ ion concentration of 150-200%.

    That will cause a 50% DECREASE of ocean carbonate ions (CO3).

    Carbonate ions are needed for growth by plankton & corals at the base of the ocean's food chain.

    Oops!!!

    For info. on CO2 ocean acidification check:
