Explore the ocean and its use as a carbon sink in this easy-to-set-up laboratory exercise. Students will be able to see how ocean acidification works when absorbing carbon and make comparisons to adding straight acid (vinegar) into the ocean itself. This lab opens up many questions for students about how plant and animal life survive in the ocean when this happens.

We're making this lab a little more accessible and more opportunities for discussion and hands-on. Questions after every station with detail descriptions for what steps students should take. Could be used in a variety of settings with minimal set-up required.
