Ocean ‘acidification’ hoax blown up by new study!? Our ocean’s ‘natural antacids’ may act faster than we thought

https://phys.org/news/2026-02-ocean-natural-antacids-faster-thought.html by Sarah Stanley, American Geophysical Union Earth’s ocean absorbs carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, helping to temper the impact of climate change but increasing ocean acidity. However, calcium carbonate minerals found in the seabed act as a natural antacid: Higher acidity causes calcium carbonate to dissolve and generate carbonate molecules that can neutralize the […]

New Study: Great Barrier Reef Coral Cover ‘At Its Highest Since Monitoring Began In 1985’ – ‘No consistent correlation between rising temps & reduced coral cover’ – ‘Most corals [are] demonstrating rapid recovery’

New Study: Great Barrier Reef Coral Cover ‘At Its Highest Since Monitoring Began In 1985’ By Kenneth Richard on 28. October 2025 Another alarmist narrative debunked by observations. Coral coverage was supposed to be existentially devastated by the modern tenths-of-a-degree increases in sea surface temperatures and recurring bleaching events. However, a new study points to assessments of […]

New Study: Corals Thrived In Warmer-Than-Today Temps & When Sea Levels Were Meters Higher

New Study: Corals Thrived In Warmer-Than-Today Temps And When Sea Levels Were Meters Higher By Kenneth Richard on 19. August 2025 New research from Indonesia indicates that from about 10,000 to 6000 years ago, when the ocean was warmer than today, coral reef growth was rapid, averaging ~6 mm per year. Sea levels rose rapidly from the Early to […]

Stop Lying, The Guardian, the World’s Oceans Aren’t Becoming Dangerously Acidic By H. Sterling Burnett The U.K.’s The Guardian ran an article claiming that the world’s oceans have surpassed a critical tipping point in acidity threatening sea life. This is false. The pH content of the world’s oceans varies by time and place throughout the day, rising […]

After a trillion tons of CO2, the Great Barrier Reef hits record coral cover third year in a row – Despite predictions of climate doom

Jo Nova:  Sixty percent of all human CO2 emissions have been emitted since 1985 but today the corals are healthier than ever …

“A record across the full 2,300 kilometer length of the reef…As [Scientist Peter] Ridd reminds us, in 2012 the AIMS team predicted the coral cover in the central and southern regions would decline to 5 – 10 percent cover by 2022. Instead the whole reef is thriving at 30 percent.”
