Australia's Great Barrier Reef has lost 50% of its coral populations in the last three decades, with climate change a key driver of reef disturbance, a new study has found

in the last three decades, with climate change a key driver of reef disturbance, a new study has found.

"We found the number of small, medium and large corals on the Great Barrier Reef has declined by more than 50% since the 1990s," reported co-author Terry Hughes, a distinguished professor at the ARC Centre of Excellence for Coral Reef Studies, in a statement. Population declines occurred in both shallow and deep water coral species, experts found, but branching and table-shaped corals -- which provide habitats for fish -- were worst affected by mass bleaching events in 2016 and 2017, triggered by record-breaking temperatures.

Devastating

China has done more damage to the Great Barrier Reef than climate change

The UN says allowing China and India to pollute more and more for 40 years is a good thing.

Let me guess. Trump's fault according to CNN

It is not from climate change. The climate has been changing FOREVER, the reason it is losing its coral is because of tourism and divers pushing off the coral. Coral dies when it is touched. I have seen with my own eyes. FakeNews

Fake news. Here is the official report showing a 12% recovery in 2019 and 13% in 2020

scifi comic about our world with unchecked climate change.

There is 10 times increase upon every investment made with us under the period of inbalance with bitcoin, What this implies is that you can make as much as $10k in a week with as low as $1k Too Good to be True Right?.send a Dm for more info

If feels like we aren't paying attention to climate change nearly as much as we should be

Yet people like trump still say it's a hoax. World leaders are responsible for earths destruction. It's never too late to do something about it but we need major action now.

Sad

How can that be when our government spent $466 million on it

Actually coming back....but let's not report that

Sad 😢🤭

这个锅怎么甩?

Typical Australia so dangerously short sighted on climate change.

So not only land but also ocean become desert.

Climate change in like spring summer fall and winter?

We are not militants nor terrorist we are just offspring trying to feed on our mother’s breast . But short life by those mothers. We are now orphans in our homes , strangers in our lands and bait for another man’s success 😔. EndPoliceBrutalityinNigeria EndSARS EndSWAT

One of it's largest tourist attractions that brings in billions of $ and they can't be bothered to protect it. Short sited idiocy.

Rip bestie

Aw

Top soil entering the ocean due to the nass deforestation in Queensland is the main cause .

Although, I saw somewhere a few years ago that corals eventually learn to adapt to warmer waters. Perhaps I’m wrong, but there is hope I believe.

News of another human-caused irreversible death of part of Mother Nature that my grandchildren and/or great grandchild will NEVER enjoy and marvel!🤮🥵

I heard there’s been hundreds of ice ages and warming temperatures before man existed. Maybe the animals caused climate change?

So very sad 😢
