Answer stop using plastic.

Explanation: Hello! My name is Hunter and I am a Marine Biologist within the state of Juno beach Fl, I work at a marine center located there and I teach people about Marine life animals and some ways to approach animals, and more. And here are some ways you can slow down or help stop ocean acidification. If you care for marine animals take the decision to use glass, wooden, bamboo, or metal etensals. This helps instead of using plastic because most plastic ends up being in the ocean. studies show that about 150 animals die a day from inhaling plastic. Second, Most plastic has acid or a type of smell like the rubber gloves at the dentist, That smell and taste can be extremely toxic and deadly for marine life animals. Third, If you are a fisher or you work on a supply boat, Make sure your oil on the boat doesn't leak, Just because you call someone and they put a net around the oil doesn't mean animals can't get under the net. Animals in the ocean are free, If you're on or work on a supply boat, Make sure to check your oil frequently. Oil leaks happen more than you think if you are not experianced! I hope this helped and how WE can slow down or reduce acdification. Have a great rest of your day or night.
