Healthy Atmosphere, Healthy Ocean: Exploring the Impacts of Ocean Acidification

Students at Piedmont Elementary School in Oakland completed an Ocean Acidification Action Project to learn about the impacts of acidification on marine organisms, and how to prevent ocean acidification by conserving energy and reducing carbon dioxide pollution. Through applied, hands-on science, the young Environmentalists discovered firsthand the importance of keeping our oceans healthy, and the consequences of our reliance on energy from fossil fuels. This Action Project empowered our young scientists to take action to protect the delicate balance of the marine food web and make behavior changes to reduce their carbon footprints.
