You seem to have missed this part.... "So is increasing temperature" " They are not acid.. as their PH is higher than 7" In biology,7.0 isn't the neutral point. Your doc will tell you a blood pH of 7.2 is acidic, since 7.4 (7.35-7.45) is considered normal. For the oceans, 8.2 is normal, 8.1 is acidic. 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. en.wikipedia.org A pH of 7.0 in humans is considered life-threatening. "However, partial correction should be considered in the setting of life-threatening metabolic acidosis(pH<7.1) or when the serum bicarbonate is low enough (i.e., <10 to 12 mEq/L) that loss of effective respiratory compensation would result in life-threatening acidosis." globalrph.com
