Terrible news today:
This year, one-third of coral cover has been destroyed in two northern sections of the Great Barrier reef due to anthropogenic heating.
Results for the southern sections (which were even hotter) have not been officially released.

This nursery, with bleached and dying corals was in French Polynesia.
Our only choice on here is π or scroll on by???
Nothing to see here fossil fools π€¬
Sorry itβs tragic and shameful to see
Now we know itβs up to us. We all have to step up and do everything we can. Demonstrate. Run for office. Give money to good organizations. Get politically active. We can do it!

So hopeless.....
A decade. I think that's all there is left.
Wonder how much good that $443m given to Barrier Reef Foundation has done? & other subsequent $$
So much gets es up by administration
Absolutely gutting
Watching the #GBR die since 1984
All those perfect creatures - they deserve so much better than what (some greedy) humans have dished out
If you'd seen it, you'd know

So many signs of reality:
Melting glaciers
Warming oceans
Shrinking ice caps
Increased intensity and frequency of extreme weather events
Drying landscape
Shrinking snow fields
Quite upsetting
Read a book.

Earth is in a warming phase
The question is, if there are a few scarce places, where corals will prosper instead. Yes, it also takes a long time before growing corals...

Isnβt that everyday now? π
So hard to keep control
We kept on eating
But our bloated bellyβs still not full
She gave us all she had
But we went and took some more
Canβt seem to shut her legs
Our Mother Nature is a whore
