Background to Our Activities
1
Protecting the Environment
The increase in carbon dioxide, one of the greenhouse gases, is a leading cause of climate change. According to the IPCC’s Sixth Assessment Report, around 35% of atmospheric carbon dioxide is absorbed and fixated in the world’s oceans.
Fixation is the process where carbon dioxide is assimilated and converted into organic matter. If this conversion balance is disrupted and the amount of carbon dioxide in the ocean continues to increase, oceans will become more acidic, impacting ecosystems.
