Intense volcanic CO₂ vents in Ili Ili Bua Bua, Normanby Island, Papua New Guinea where CO₂ bubbles out of the reef making water acidic as we would expect to see in the future due to the burning of fossil fuels. The town's name, Ili Ili Bua Bua, means "Water Water Bubble Bubble" in the local dialect.
