Although not a candidate measurement in our challenge, ocean acidification due to climate change is crucially important in climate education. Ocean acidification has impacts on marine organisms and has already affected the deep ocean, particularly at high latitudes.
According to the latest indicators of the European Environment Agency (EEA), oceans have become 30% more acidic over the industrial area. In particular, half of this ocean acidification happened since the 1980s!
The pH levels of oceans have declined from 8.2 to below 8.1 over the industrial era as a result of an increase in atmospheric CO2 concentrations.

Hello! This year I went swimming with my kids to the seaside. Swimming relaxes the soul. We always swim in the same place. The entrance is gravel, then sand. Depths We passed the gravel field. My feet are in mud instead of sand. At first I thought I had stepped on something live. I hastily took the next step. But the same mud was stale. Not sand. There is a black shadow at the bottom of the sea. I swam quickly to escape into the deep, searching for clear waters. Are you experiencing these too? Find a time for yourself. For example, water ten years ago... How is water today?... You must play this game. It will teach you a lot. I am sure
