Not exactly a closed loop - about 30-50% of the carbon dioxide we release is absorbed into the ocean[1]. So this process might actually decrease atmospheric CO2 levels, but ocean acidification will continue to increase.

Carbonic acid in the ocean is in equilibrium with the atmosphere, so if you knock down the ppm in the atmosphere it'll eventually affect the oceans.


I have noticed this as well. I actually cancelled my subscription and will continue using Google's service which has more of the music I listen to available in the US.
