The Millenium Development Goals, agreed to by every member country of the United Nations in 2000, call for the worldwide eradication of poverty and hunger, universal education, gender equality and huge improvements in health by 2015: two years ago!!
Can we do this without making the planet warmer?
Let's think big and imagine how we can confront the climate crisis in a way that is realistic about the other major problems that we face as a planet and as a species on it.

Ocean Acidification
Ocean acidification is an extreme problem. It is causing bleaching of our coral reefs as well as killing creatures with shells. The bleaching of coral reefs is an extreme problem because our coral reefs supply a lot of clean air for us. It is caused by the massive amounts of CO2 being released into our atmosphere and then taken up into our ocean.
Its really sad that because of ocean acidification were losing such a beautiful ecosystem and a lot of people are unaware of this issue too. What do you think would be some ways for average people to help reduce or slow down the ocean acidification?
