A drop in the ocean: does experimental technology hold the key to saving the world's seas?

The jury's still out on the damage that OAE could do, says Dr James Kerry, an expert on coral reefs and senior research fellow at James Cook University.

It might block light levels; it might be mistaken as food by marine creatures.
