Summary Of Ocean Acidification By Hannah Waters

In the article, “Ocean Acidification,” the author Hannah Waters illustrates the idea that ocean acidification can be climate change's “evil twin.” Humans don’t see or feel carbon dioxide in the atmosphere because we are not affected by it, the marine life is. When burning coal, oil and gas are released into the air it no longer stays there, but instead the ocean absorbs it. When this happens it causes the water to become more acidic and the ocean’s pH level drops.
I would have to agree with the writer of this article in so many ways. The writer says that scientists thought that having less carbon dioxide in the air, made the planet warmer. Over the past years, they have realized that this is not true because it is changing the ocean's chemistry.
