Coral Reefs

Just watched Discovery channel and it featured the world's coral reefs.

By 2010, 30% of the world's coral reefs would be dead!

By 2030, 50% of the Great Barrier Reef would be dead!

sad if true...

Quite frankly, I think over 30% of the reefs are already dead.

The biggest culprit is acid rain and we know what causes that

i think those numbers are outdated

coral is dying at an alarming rate ... i think in 10 years there won't be much
left of the Caribbean corals

that is a sad thing indeed. with the loss of the corals we lose countless fish and marine species that rely heavily on the corals for survival.

I think you're right. I went t the Great barrier reef about 8 years ago, and again about 2 years ago - there was a huge difference. very scary...

Yes we all lose ... especially we who love to make bubbles. Lets make a stand!

Reef loss will kill all of us.
