Original: Ocean’s ability to absorb carbon is weakening as climate change intensifies, UN warns https:// news.un.org/en/story/2026
The United Nations has warned that the ocean's capacity to absorb carbon dioxide is weakening as climate change intensifies, a shift with serious implications for global warming since the ocean currently takes up a large share of human emissions. The warning is being circulated widely among climate and environmental commentators online, with users tagging discussions on pollution, ecology and climate instability.
Why now: A new UN warning about a key natural carbon sink failing is alarming for global climate projections.
