This might be more serious problem than the global warming. What can we do about it in next few decades?

"In the last hundred years, atmospheric CO₂ has risen about 30 percent, ... (and) ... ocean pH has fallen by 0.1 unit." 

"pH may fall another 0.3 units by the end of the century" 

"the larvae of bay scallops and hard clams grow best at pre-industrial pH levels, while their shells corrode at the levels projected for 2100."  

"The decisions we make over the next few decades could have significant implications on a geologic timescale."
