... On Ocean acidity..you're confused with the terminology here. No-one's saying the oceans have become battery acid - they are however becoming more acidic (or less alkaline) which if taken too far will stop coral and other marine life from forming a skeleton. And yes, ocean pH has changed up and down ...

Oceans as Heat Sink Simplifying Model One of the main services the oceans provide the plane is to function as our largest Heat Sink, regulating our climate by absorbing, storing and then slowly releasing large quantities of heat. In this way, the oceans buffer the climate of nearby landmasses and, e ...
