Detecting the acidity of the ocean with sound, the role of lead in human evolution, and how the universe ends (podcast)

First up on the podcast, increased carbon dioxide emissions sink more acidity into the ocean, but checking pH all over the world, up and down the water column, is incredibly challenging. Staff Writer Paul Voosen joins host Sarah Crespi to discuss a technique that takes advantage of how sound moves through the water to detect ocean acidification.

This week’s episode was produced with help from Podigy.
