Can we bury global warming?
Article Abstract:
Scientists are aware that CO2 is warming the atmosphere that is causing sea level to rise, and that the CO2 absorbed by the oceans is acidifying the water. They are however unsure of how climate could alter across the globe, what a more acidic ocean could mean, which ecological systems on land and in the sea would be most vulnerable to climate change, and how these developments might affect human health and well-being.
