Ocean naturally absorbs a quarter to a third of man-made CO2 emissions.

By increasing the alkalinity of seawater through the addition of certain minerals, the ocean can chemically bind more CO2 without further acidification.

Scientists from GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel investigated the response of zooplankton and potential impacts on the food web for the first time.
