    The issue of the California drought is one that has recently become front and center on the minds of its citizens. For the last couple of years California has been experiencing a drought noticeably hotter and drier than anything that we who live here are used to. In fact, the first six months of 2014 were the hottest California has experienced since 1934, the previous “hottest year”, beaten out by a whole degree. In fact, the NOAA, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, reported that 95 percent of California is in severe drought conditions and nearly 60 percent of the state is listed as D4, the worst drought conditions possible (Jahad, 2014).

    Both of these pieces of information show a slight temperature increase, which may not sound significant, but if the temperature continues rising at the rate that it currently is, then a temperature increase will have consequences such as a rise in sea level, change in rainfall patterns and ecosystems and more dangerous and frequent extreme weather Another aspect proving climate change’s existence is the increase in ocean acidification. Increased carbon dioxide in the air is causing rapid ocean acidification to occur. Ocean acidification is when carbon dioxide is absorbed by seawater and reduces the seawater’s pH level and since the industrial revolution, the acidity of surface ocean waters has increased by 30%. Ocean acidification is dangerous because in more acidic waters, calcium carbonate is more difficult to absorb.…
