Capitol Beach | Derek Brockbank | OCAP: Tackling Climate Change Ocean-Deep

Ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE) involves releasing certain minerals into the ocean, sparking a chemical reaction that enables the seawater to trap more CO₂ from the air and mitigating, albeit temporarily, ocean acidification.

House Republicans, with the support of U.S. Reps. Claudia Tenney and Brandon Williams, approved a border security bill as a COVID-era immigration policy expired.

Since humans began emitting large amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere at the start of the Industrial Revolution in 1750, scientists estimate that the ocean has absorbed 20 to 30 percent of these emissions.

The study also found that acidity is increasing in the Gulf of Maine faster than at other locations on the East Coast.
