As members of the InterAcademy Panel, 105 science academies have issued a statement on ocean acidification recommending that by 2050, global CO2 emissions be reduced by at least 50% compared to the 1990 level. The United Nation's Sustainable Development Goal 14 (\"Life below Water\") has a target to \"minimize and address the impacts of ocean acidification\".\"\n\nOn the other hand, by acting on [[climate change]] and drastically reducing the use of [[fossil fuels]], ocean acidification could be solved.
