    You may or may not know that we’ve been using the ocean as a vast toilet. But it’s actually the lungs of this planet; it’s become urgent to protect and study the ocean in an unprecedented manner, specifically because of ocean acidification, the underbelly of climate change. This bill is a good first step.
