"What they should write is "reducing alkalinity".

Reducing alkalinity increases acidity.

"Now "acidification" of the oceans is used to scare the gullible"

No; it's to inform the literate. Now I will attempt to inform the ignorant.

pH 7.0 is not considered neutral in many areas of science. If your blood pH goes to 7.0, your doc will spend equal amounts of time in the ICU trying to save you. , and in the chapel praying for a miracle.

Acidosis is an increased acidity in the blood and other body tissue (i.e., an increased hydrogen ion concentration). If not further qualified, it usually refers to acidity of the blood plasma.

Acidosis is said to occur when arterial pH falls below 7.35 (except in the fetus- see below), while its counterpart ( alkalosis) occurs at a pH over 7.45. Arterial blood gas analysis and other tests are required to separate the main causes.

"The Global Alarmists have lost on the CO2 in air argument"

Sorry; another phenomenon not seen in the real world, where China just announced their carbon tax, so that you and all "patriots" here can send them tax money to help them build out their green infrastructure, which is good, cuz they also announced a cap on emissions.
