  1. RE: mstdn.social/@compoundchem/116

    The #climatecrisis has multiple negative effects on the maritime #biosphere.

    The rise in temperature in the sea gets most attention, but #oceanacidification is a major risk as well to the #maritime #ecology - threatening the stability of the #foodchain in the world's #oceans.

    Within this century the skeletons of maritime organisms, such as #corals, will be at risk to erode faster then they can be sustained. This will also affect #plankton which forms the basis of the maritime #food chain.

  3. #Oceans just hit an ominous milestone
    A new report sounds alarm on #oceanacidification as #Earth breaches the seventh of nine "#planetaryboundaries."
    Relentless #acidification of the #seas that’s crossed into dangerous territory, threatening all manner of #marine life, including the organisms at the base of the #foodweb.
    #Climate is changing rapidly; #humans are using too much #freshwater; we’re driving species to #extinction and transforming the #biosphere
