There was no mention of the SML surface microlayer that regulates the world’s water vapour pressure and cloud formation.
No mention of liphillic toxic for ever chemicals
No mention of partially combusted carbon pollution
No mention is made that 80% + of all the worlds industrial and municipal wastewater is discharged into the oceans without treatment
No mention about HNLC dead zones that now cover 25% of the Sourther Ocean and are expanding at 2% year on year
No mention of ocean acidification that will crash most marine life over the next 20 years.
……..
The report is an embarrassment and does a complete disservice to the critical role the oceans play as the main part of the planet’s life support system and regulator of the climate.
The report is weak beyond belief.
