Enhancing synergies between action on ocean acidification and the post‐2020 global biodiversity framework
Abstract Ocean acidification is a substantial emergent threat to marine biodiversity and the goods and services it provides. Although efforts to address ocean acidification have been taken under the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), a far greater potential to do so exists by finding synergie...
