| Summary/Abstract |
The article discusses the pollution of the oceans with increasing level of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the sea water. Since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution in about 1750, man's activities have loaded the atmosphere with great quantities of CO2. The effect of excess CO2 on marine life is that a more acidic ocean reduces the ability of organisms to extract calcium carbonate from the seawater.
