Report: Oceans to Become More Acidic than Any Time in 65 Million Years
----------------------------------------------------------------------



In science news, new research shows the world’s oceans are becoming more
acidic than at any time in the past 65 million years due to increasing
levels of greenhouse gas emissions. Scientists at the University of
Bristol in England say oceans are likely to become so acidic in coming
centuries that they will become uninhabitable for vast swaths of life.
