The dangers of ocean acidification

Article Abstract:

The adverse effects of excess carbon dioxide, which is given off from the burning of fossil fuels that goes into the ocean, where it changes the acid balance of seawater, on marine life are discussed. The acidification of ocean makes it more difficult for marine creatures to build hard parts out of calcium carbonate and the decline in pH threatens a variety of organisms, including corals.
