What does the acidification of oceans mean for marine organisms and humans?
Animals like coral and phytoplankton need carbonate ions to make their shells. Less carbonate available may mean shells become thinner and more fragile.
A fall in marine biology threatens food security for 500 million people.
How does a decrease in Ocean salinity impact us?
More Freshwater is added to our oceans
Slows down large scale oceanic circulation in North Eastern Atlantic ( causes rising sea levels, global heating, shifts in marine ecosystems, and seriously compromised food security)
