Supposedly, oceans cannot regulate the amount of CO2 in the air for reasons which are quirky. The first impression in science is that the oceans should regulate, which means there has to be an explanation of why they do not regulate before carbon dioxide can be said to cause global warming.

One fraudulent explanation is that the oceans are in layers, and the top layer does not mix enough to get rid of carbon dioxide from the air. The absurdity of that logic is that no one has found a difference in pH for the top. If the top were saturated, it would have to be more acidic. Yet it is pH 8.1, which is alkaline.

Another explanation is that very little carbon dioxide is needed to saturate the surface of the oceans. If the surface were saturated, so the CO2 produced by humans could not be absorbed, all sorts of absurdities would follow. One, oceans could not get acidic and destroy coral reefs. It means the promoters of the acid-in-the-oceans fraud are contradicting the promoters of the non-regulation fraud.

To fix this, frauds say that one third of the CO2 produced by humans goes into the oceans, while two thirds stays in the air and produces global warming. Oceans have no ability to determine what one third of the human production is.

Humans are now said to be adding 8.5 giga tons (GT) of carbon to the atmosphere per year, which is about 1% of the amount already in the atmosphere (750 GT). If one third of the human product goes into the oceans, that's 2.83 GT per year. If the oceans are absorbing 2.83 GT carbon per year now, they were doing the same thing a hundred years ago and a thousand years ago. If there is a delicate balance in nature which the humans upset, then removing 2.83 GT carbon every year would result in all CO2 being removed from the air in 265 years. In other words, the oceans would have sucked all CO2 from the air long before humans existed.

Nature sorts out the result by regulating the amount of carbon dioxide in the air as shown by the extremely stable line for the amount of CO2 in the air year after year. If the oceans weren't regulating, the amount of CO2 in the air would increase or decrease until life became impossible.
