• The ocean has absorbed about half of all the carbon dioxide man has spewed into the air since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution.
• The surface pH of the oceans has lowered by .1 - representing a 30% increase in the acidity of the ocean.
• The CO₂ combines with the ocean's H₂0 producing H₂C0₃ (carbonic acid - a weak acid found in most sodas)
