Target 14.3: Reduce ocean acidification
UN definition: "Minimize and address the impacts of ocean acidification, including through enhanced scientific cooperation at all levels."
Reduce ocean acidification - SDG Indicator 14.3.1
Definition: Indicator 14.3.1 is the "average marine acidity (pH) measured at agreed suite of representative sampling stations".
Goal: "Minimize and address the impacts of ocean acidification" by 2030.
