Climate Change's “Evil Twin”

Click here to a link to a 55 minute interview with Meg Chadsey regarding ocean acidification broadcast from listener-sponsored KPFA Berkeley, California. 

 ...Meg worked with the University of Washington School of Marine Affairs, the Marine Stewardship Council and Seattle Chefs Collaborative. She earned a bachelor’s degree from Cornell University and a doctorate in microbiology from the University of Washington. She's (practically) a native Seattleite and is interested in everything that happens on or beneath the waves.





Carbon dioxide generated by the burning of fossil fuels is being absorbed into the oceans with already serious -- and potentially catastrophic -- consequences for marine life and human life. Meg Chadsey describes the phenomenon of ocean acidification and the myriad physical and social threats it poses.
