Increasing Ocean Acidification Threatens Marine Life
The increasing ocean acidification threatens marine life in known and unknown ways. The oceans are acidifying at the fastest rate in many millions of years. The absorption of CO2 by water causes acidification. This is a natural process, which forms carbonic acid (H2CO3). The breakdown of the carbonic acid results in the reduction of carbonate ions (CO3(2-)). To make a […]

Oceanic Garbage Patches – Great and Small
The Great Pacific Garbage Patch (GPGP) is the best known and largest of the oceanic garbage patches but it is not the only one. Garbage patches are formed in what is called a gyre, a place where ocean currents naturally form rotating areas of water. These currents “suck” in floating and submerged debris, causing large accumulations of junk, mostly made […]

The ones who challenge the virus putting themselves at risk and infecting others should be held accountable. We read on any press platform news about people protesting lock-downs and against the use of masks. They were promoting rallies […]
“Baked In” Global Warming Higher than Thought
“Baked In” Global Warming refers to the amount of warming that will occur due to the gasses (carbon dioxide, methane, etc.) already put into the atmosphere. This is also referred to by scientists as “committed warming”. In a recently published paper in Nature, scientists have determined that the amount of warming due to already released gasses will exceed the goal […]

In every corner of the world there was an empty chair at the Christmas table and the joy of the season was taken away by a terrible pandemic. We listen to scientists, […]
