#CoralReefs
The 11 past months have been the hottest ever recorded, especially for the ocean.
This has brought catastrophic consequences for #CoralReefs, which are highly susceptible to #ClimateChange. Indeed, last month NOAA has confirmed we're in the 4th #CoralBleaching event.👇

NOAA confirms 4th global coral bleaching event
The world is currently experiencing a global coral bleaching event, according to NOAA scientists. This is the fourth global event on record and the second in the last 10 years. Bleaching-level heat ...

FYI according to the IPCC, at a warming level of 1.5°C, between 70-90% of #CoralReefs are projected to decline by 2100. Meanwhile, at a warming level of 2°C, coral reefs are projected to almost completely vanish, with a 99% decline by 2100.

Can a submerged sculpture park save the planet? I went to Grenada to find out. Here's how underwater statues and organic farms are helping this island stay sustainable.

How Underwater Statues And Organic Farms Help Grenada Stay Sustainable
Grenada is known for its white sandy beaches and rainforests. But thanks to an underwater sculpture park and organic farms, it also has a reputation for sustainability.

The end of coral reefs as we know them
Years ago, scientists made a devastating prediction about the ocean. Now it’s unfolding.

Coral reefs can't keep up with climate change. So scientists are speeding up evolution
Climate change is heating oceans faster than the world's coral reefs can handle. So scientists are breeding corals that can withstand hotter temperatures – but only to a point.

"This is absolute rubbish, another example of unscaleable “solutions” that feed a false narrative - that clever scientists “could save” the world’s #CoralReefs from anthropogenic heating. In the meantime, billions of #corals have died this summer from rising temperatures."
Playing thriving reef sounds on underwater speakers ‘could save damaged corals’

Seeding steel frames brings destroyed coral reefs back to life
It won't help with heat-driven bleaching, but other human damage can be fixed.
