Oceans to turn into acid by the end of the century

"We can predict the magnitude of the acidification based on the
evidence that has been collected from the ocean's surface, the
geological and historical record, ocean circulation models, and what's
known about ocean chemistry," continued Caldeira. "What we can't
predict is just what acidic oceans mean to ocean ecology and to Earth's
climate. International and governmental bodies must focus on this area
before it's too late."
So <a href="http://www.spacedaily.com/news/oceans-05i.html">there you have it</a>. Oceans of acid
sounds pretty awesome (unless you like surfing, or sea food). Maybe I
should bring back "Doomsayer Digest".
P.S.:
Our hearts go to the people of London. 21st century never looked uglier.

other than nuclear power, environment-related apocalypse has seemed the most likely type (if apocalypse happens) in the past few years.

About acid oceans, this doesn't look fun at all.

Depends upon what you make of it, Koki. It will revolutionise body disposal. Yes.

I was due to be using the trains and tubes in London as well today, but decided not to go. Kind of lucky.

You are too important to Church of Fallout to die from some dumbass terrorist attack. Be glad.

That's right. The Great Prophet Aptyp made sure you didn't die so that you could fulfill your divinely ordained purpose: to shove Susan back into Asshats and not let him out this time.

That's an immensely important "if". Apocalypse has been humanity's obsession since it's birth, and still hasn't happened.

Heil Hitler!

Teatime, I thought you were in Yorkshire

Susan, I see you've been unleashed - welcome back

ApTyp, WTF is wrong with you?

I am in Yorkshire, but was going down to London for the Queen concert in Hyde Park (it's now been postponed until next week anyway).

Just dump a couple of boxes of Tums into the Atlantic and boom, problem solved. Easy as pie. We get to keep our shellfish and the aquatic fauna will never have to deal with heartburn ever again.

Dropping alkali salts into the ocean wont help for shit, you will still have the enourmous salt concentration and that means that all you lovely fishies will shrivel due to a massive outflux of water.(I love seafood, this sucks) The only real solution is desalination, in truth us little wasteful homo sapiens(should be underlined) have gone and rogered our nice little planet, too late, oh well.

"Acidification" doesn't mean "ocean will turn into acid". On a side note, I assidified ApTyp's mom the other night.

Wow, what an insightful comment! You're so vastly smarter than us, you must be some kind of a retard.

It's not old news. Therefore, you are a liar. Good day, sir.
