New SPPI paper on Ocean Acidification

The Hockey Schtick
"Since the CO2 causes catastrophic global warming schtick hasn't worked out, many alarmists have now turned their focus onto another imaginary problem: CO2 causing "acidification" of the oceans. A new SPPI paper by Lord Monckton exposes the fallacy.Key points:

* Doubling of atmospheric levels would only increase dissolved CO2 in the oceans by .48%
* There is no reliable evidence that ocean pH is falling
* Increased CO2 dissolution in the oceans increases calcification of shellfish and coral
* Corals evolved at a time when CO2 levels were 15 times higher than the present
* Laboratory experiments on sealife in which hydrochloric acid is added to the water (not CO2) and without the natural buffers present in the ocean is meaningless to determine effects of increased CO2 levels on sealife.
