Report by International center to monitor the envirionment

The report was prepared by the International Center to monitor and protect the environment, UNEP. According to a report data, World Ocean absorbs a quarter of total CO2 that is emitted into the atmosphere due to fuel combustion, deforestation and other forms of human activity. In the absence of this mechanism, the carbon dioxide accumulating in the atmosphere would accumulate much faster and the effect of climate warming would be more noticeable. But the absorption of CO2 at the same time and leads to increased acidity of water, disrupting the ability of some species of marine organisms to form shells and exoskeletons, which are composed of calcium carbonate. A reduction of feed and reduces fish stocks. According to research by 2050, ocean acidity to increase by 150%. The new study also claims that by the year 2100 due to increasing acidity of 70% of coral will be destroyed. Increased acidity of the ocean, according to the Executive Secretary of the Convention A. Djoghlaf, the process is practically irreversible and the damage to ecosystems can be averted only a rapid decline in CO2 emissions. Therefore, A. Djoghlaf believes that this issue should be discussed in Copenhagen. In the Kyoto Protocol, may be added to the contract, taking into account the need to improve the environmental performance of transport. This was reported yesterday by the International Union of Railways M. Sagevik.
