North Atlantic Slows On The Uptake Of CO2
East Anglia, U.K. (Oct 23, 2007 14:41 EST) Further evidence for the decline of the oceans historical role as an important sink for atmospheric carbon dioxide is supplied by new research by environmental scientists from the University of East Anglia.
Since the industrial revolution, much of the CO2 we have released into the atmosphere has been taken up by the worlds oceans which act as a strong sink for the emissions.
This has slowed climate change. Without this uptake, CO2 levels would have risen much faster and the climate would be warming more rapidly.
