In addition to these opportunities, a range of ocean-based carbon removal approaches could help capture and store billions of tons of carbon. Importantly, these approaches would not increase ocean acidification. The ocean absorbs just under one-third of anthropogenic CO2 emissions, contributing to a rise in ocean acidification.

? Charting a course to curb maritime emissions

Climate Tech VC

Current decarbonization efforts alone set the industry on a course to increase emissions ~10% from today’s levels by 2050. Despite fears about cost increases and low-sulfur fuel availability, the change was a success in terms of decreasing pollution that contributes to ocean acidification and harms the health of humans and marine life.

Still, emissions must decrease far more rapidly than that by 2050 to keep us in line with international climate goals. The Chugach Regional Resources Commission, an organization made up of seven Indigenous governments in south-central Alaska, is leading several projects aimed at helping coastal communities adapt to the changing ocean.
