Consequently, the ocean becomes more acidic and the pH level decreases. why ]]> 2023-05-05 20:44:11 UTC https://padlet.com/1078270/gch7erhes9hy01kl/wish/2579977145 1078270 https://padlet.com/1078270/gch7erhes9hy01kl/wish/2579978037 This can harm a significant number of marine life. For example, coral reefs. Not only does the coral reef's structure, shells and skeletons get weakened by having calcium carbonate, an important ingredient, being damaged by acid, it also reduces the biodiversity of it. This means that organisms are more susceptible to damages and die which in turn, affect the wider food web.]]> 2023-05-05 20:45:37 UTC https://padlet.com/1078270/gch7erhes9hy01kl/wish/2579978037 1078270 https://padlet.com/1078270/gch7erhes9hy01kl/wish/2579985277 Since plants and trees have the ability to capture CO2 and release oxygen, growing water plants like seaweed and kelp can reduce CO2 in the ocean and in turn, minimize ocean acidification.]]> 2023-05-05 21:00:17 UTC https://padlet.com/1078270/gch7erhes9hy01kl/wish/2579985277 1078270 https://padlet.com/1078270/gch7erhes9hy01kl/wish/2579989310 2023-05-05 21:08:48 UTC https://padlet.com/1078270/gch7erhes9hy01kl/wish/2579989310 1078270 https://padlet.com/1078270/gch7erhes9hy01kl/wish/2579989497 2023-05-05 21:09:15 UTC https://padlet.com/1078270/gch7erhes9hy01kl/wish/2579989497
