Wharfie, did you even read that information I provided? A rebuttal isn't to tell me I am like somebody who likes to ride horses backwards. A contrarian argument would be to spot some mistake and point it out, including explaining why it's wrong. After 100 years of boosting CO2 levels in both air and water, if the doomsday scenario for coral was true, it would already have happened or be measurably on the way. It hasn't. That means coral can adapt; as it has obviously done for a billion years. Anyway, even if molluscs do have trouble mineralizing their shells, that's a good thing, not a bad thing. The blighters have got such hard shells that our food supplies [fish] have trouble eating them. If calcium supplies in oceans run low, we could mine vast limestone deposits and pour microfine particles into the sea. The holes could be filled with supermarket bags which people seem to think are a problem to dispose of though I find them useful for all sorts of things and very simple to dispose of = simply chuck them in the bin when I've finished recycling them. It isn't a rebuttal to post a simpleton article which says that if we put acid in water it dissolves shells. Life is more complex than that, as you would have discovered if you had read the article I provided. You seem to think that personal insults is some sort of argument or reasoning or something. Mqurice
