Introduction

Introduction

causes

Oceans are able to catch CO2 of the atmosphere. Then it will beacome an ion, this is what acidifies oceans. But if the atmosphere contains more CO2, oceans will catch it more.

Introduction

consequences

Marine organisms such as corals, mollusks, and planktonic organisms are particularly vulnerable due to their reliance on calcium carbonate structures. Disruption of marine food chains is also observed, with impacts on predator species and their prey

Individual solution n°1

use ecological products in gardens

Nutrient runoff from agriculture or your garden has high levels of nitrogen and carbon

It is therefore advisable to use fertilizers only if it is unavoidable or to plant native plants which are more easily adaptable

like 500 km driven by car

7.000 L saved

Individual solution n°2

eat less meat

not eating meat at least once a week saves almost 7,000 liters of water and reduce CO2 emissions equivalent to 500 km driven by car In 2015, this sector was responsible for 21% of greenhouse gas emissions

local solution n°1

Protect habitats and ecosystems

Regional Action Plan on Ocean Acidification for Latin America and the Caribbean. Establishment of a label in France for the sustainable development objective (ODD) The “Ocean approved®” label implemented in 2021The “Ocean approved®” label implemented in 2021

angling, longlining, seining, trapping and shrimp fishing.

local solution n°2

Promoting sustainable fishing

Norway is one of the country that has implemented this fishery and has been re-certified by the Marine Stewardship Council

Mondial solution n°1

reduce CO2 emissions

reforestation, forest management sustainably, do not make the living floor disappear by building unnecessary buildings or even protect the oceans

Project set up at the end of COP28 which targets 7 key areas

Mondial solution n°2

Better identify the causes of this acidification and the means to put in place to alleviate it by combining science, policy and action
