When CO<sub>2</sub> dissolves in the ocean, it turns into acid ions (H<sub>2</sub>CO<sub>3</sub> and HCO<sub>3-</sub>). This makes the oceans more acidic and the pH drops.

== Explanation==
Ocean acidification is sometimes referred to as "the other carbon problem". It is not strictly speaking a consequence of climate change, but another consequence of CO<sub>2</sub> emissions.

The card [[En-en adult card 11 concentration of co2|Concentration of CO<sub>2</sub> (ppm)]] is often identified by players as the precursor of this card. However, not every molecule that is found in the ocean was previously in the atmosphere, and therefore the most logical link is with the [[En-en adult card 12 carbon sinks|carbon sinks]] card.
