Скачать или смотреть Ocean Acidification Crisis: Earth’s Oceans Cross a Dangerous Planetary Boundary

The world's oceans have officially crossed a critical planetary boundary, pushing marine ecosystems into a danger zone. By 2020, key ocean acidification metrics revealed that 40% of surface waters and 60% of water down to 650 feet had entered a risky chemical state. This change threatens coral reefs, shellfish, and plankton, with severe implications for marine life and human communities. Led by Professor Helen S. Findlay, this groundbreaking study highlights the urgent need to reduce carbon emissions to protect our oceans. Learn how ocean acidification, combined with warming and deoxygenation, is reshaping marine habitats and what it means for food security and coastal economies.
