Climate change exerts great pressure for change on species and biodiversity. 

Three varieties to worry about, control and repel.

New research has shown that by injecting an alkalinizing agent into the ocean along the length of the Great Barrier Reef, it would be possible, at the present rate of anthropogenic carbon emissions, to offset ten years’ worth of ocean acidification.
