Acidification : Reducing the pH rating of a substance making it more acidic in nature, for example, increased carbon emissions lead to the oceans absorbing more of it, increasing acidification and damaging ecology such as coral bleaching. Air emissions : Any gas emitted into the atmosphere from industrial or commercial activity.

Cop stands for conference of the parties under the UNFCCC, and the annual meetings have swung between fractious and soporific, interspersed with moments of high drama and the occasional triumph ( the Paris agreement in 2015 ) and disaster (Copenhagen in 2009). Why do we need a Cop – don’t we already have the Paris agreement?
