Regardless of fraud charges pending in the courts, pH is actually rising when all the available data is used. There was also some possible purging of data after a FOI request.

In any case, as far as coral bleaching goes who really knows? Because there is no funding to find out, it all goes into the meme now and focuses entirely on the innocent patsy molecule we call CO2. If I had to guess it would be some other factor, perhaps poo in the water from India, some toxic ooze from China? Agricultural runoff? Depletion of fisheries in the region? All we can do is guess as to the real causes but it can't be ocean acidification, perhaps ocean alkalinity? Maybe the meme will have to change it's language like it did with cooling - warming - change and go for ocean pH change?

More importantly, how does one go about getting their fingers into the climate change pie and some of that sweet government funding?
