Britain's Royal Society issued a report stating that our oceans are currently absorbing one ton of carbon dioxide (primary greenhouse gas) per person per year and are simply running out of room to absorb it. The Royal Society said ocean carbon sinkholes are overtaxed by the rising out- put of carbon burning fuels, raising the oceans acidity and with it the threat to life.

Reuters article: Oceans At Risk from Global Warming by Jeremy Lovel June 30, 2005 "Basic chemistry leaves us in little doubt that our burning of fossil fuels is changing the acidity of our oceans," stated by oceanic expert John Raven. "And the rate of change we are seeing to the ocean's chemistry is a hundred times faster than has happened for millions of years," Raven said.
