The amount of acid that humans have dumped into the ocean has altered the Ph of the ocean by 0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001%
The ocean is pretty damn big.

It's not the acid, it's the CO2, and the pH change is a lot more than the infinitesimal amount you offered. It's measurable.

What about all the sulphur dioxide that volcanoes spew into the atmosphere. I just happened to catch a show on Tambora
last weekend. Granted, it was in 1815, but the show claimed it ejected a 100 million tons, iirc, of sulphur (sulphur compounds?).
