Love a lobster conga line? 🦞 We do too. But ocean acidification is crashing the party. As the ocean absorbs more CO₂, its pH drops — making it harder for Caribbean lobsters and other crustaceans to build strong shells.🌊 oceanfdn.org/ocean-acidif...

A husband dressed in black and red dips his bride back to kiss her on the beach. Text: “So many of my favorite memories and best times were and are spent at the ocean. Growing up we went every year, several times a year, camping at Seaside OR with family and friends. That continued until I grew up and continued that tradition with my spouse. We go at least once a year and got married on the beach in Ocean Park WA. The ocean and beach is a part of my soul for sure.”
