OCEAN ACIDIFICATION

Our marine photos of humpback whales, sea turtles, sharks, and bluefin tuna have been included in a new film produced by NRDC (The Natural Resources Defense Council) titled "Acid Test". Take a look at www.acidtestmovie.com

We are proud to have contributed to this powerful presentation on the only recently acknowledged environmental issue of how our oceans are becoming more acidic due to increased carbon dioxide levels. This increased acidity has profound negative effects on shell-building creatures such as snails, crustaceans (crabs, lobsters, shrimp and other commercially valuable shellfish), and even coral reefs.
