1 Ocean acidification Luis Urbina

2 Is the ocean getting acid?

3 Carbon cycle Anthropogenic CO2 Ocean acidification Chemical changes in the ocean Nutrient reduction Calcareous formation erosion Reduction of biodiversity and biomass Sound propagation increment dimethyl sulphide (DMS) decrement Is ocean acidification a problem?

4 LeopoldNeoclassical Cost-benefit Biota citizen, integrity and stability of biota Do we have to take action? Only a little bit Yes What can be do ? Over fishing, water pollution, CO2 emissions Is ocean acidification a problem? Which are my values?
