Carbon dioxide

This guide answers key questions about ocean acidification and discusses the degree of certainty of the international scientific community about what is already happening to the ocean, what the future may hold for the ocean in a high carbon dioxide (CO2) world, and the possible consequences of ocean acidification. The guide provides the latest science on the speed and scale of impact that CO2 emissions will have on the ocean and on humanity.
