Ocean's got the blues news.bbc.co.uk one leading coral scientist, Tom Goreau of the Global Coral Reef Alliance, describes acidification as a "fad", distracting the world from climate change. "The increase in direct surface temperature is a far more serious and immediate threat to reefs than acidification," he says in an article for the Alliance.
