Oh, but please don't use that denier graph.
yeah no kidding. but! for the oceans, i think they’re basically fucked at this point, right? stratification and acidification, most of the time in hot earth scenarios almost all of the life is on land, is what i’ve heard

i don’t know maybe i’m being pessimistic maybe we’ll all get a clue

It's a race to do it fast enough.

It's the stratification in hot climates that does the job. Acidity only happens in association with rapid CO2 increases. The absolute level doesn't matter, because buffering. The PETM had a big acidification spike but only saw significant extinctions in bottom-dwelling forams, 1/

probably because they couldn't go deeper. Unfortunately we're pushing things a lot harder, which could mean much greater acidification. But we still have a chance to keep both from getting really bad. If we give them more time ocean species can shift toward the poles. 2/2
