The sad thing is species have been dying on this rock for millions of years. We are creating an imbalance all by our little selves. Thats amazing. It means we can fix it. At the end of the day we are not worried about them. We worry about us existing w/ out them. I hope this all works out. Love the concept.

I been going to Cozumel Mexico with my best friend for over 30 years..at first it was sporadicly then about 20 years ago I was able to go yearly and the last 3 years or so I’ve gone twice yearly. We just went over Christmas and we were shocked at how many of the coral we see regularly along the shore had turned white. That scared me because we had been there in March and don’t recall seeing anything, I was heartbroken 💔. We haven’t been out to the deep reefs..the Columbian reef and the Palancar reef for a few years because we don’t dive. We’ve decided that the next time we go we’ll take a tour out and see how it looks. I pray that they are still healthy but don’t have a lot of hope. This beautiful island relies on tourism and we have gotten to know many of the locals so it’s hard when you know the people that are affected by these disasters. The vast difference in tourism from even 30 years ago to now is insane, on one hand I would like it to go back to the quieter island but on the other hand I am happy for the residents to have this income, for the reefs sake I would lone it to go back to the way it was.

2 years ago, I got my first betta fish. I fell in love with fish keeping instantly and soon upgraded from a 5g to a 10g, then a 20g, then a 29g. I eventually got my first reef tank and I knew instantly that this was my calling. I decided I wanted to start working with fish and coral preservation in the future. I planned out the steps to get there and although it’s a long journey, I’ve already taken my first step by working with coral at a fish store to learn more! Even though it’s a depressing science, coral is so vital for the future of the world and would be terrible to loose their beauty.

In the best case, minimal bureaucracy and maximal donation to the researchers and on site workers. I mean, these individuals, with so much money even their whole generation is ultra rich, could spend half of their time to really focus on something important and useful, including for their own future generation.

They arrived at this level because they don't pay taxes, like for Amazon, to take the easy example. And when they are making charity, it's generally because they gain something, can be other tax reductions, or just for their image, not for the sole benefit of the planet. About the fondations, like for Microsoft, call me a pessimist, but that's not really to change things, that's for prestige, if not to play a game of influence, in the best cases. So yes, they are individuals who truly do things, but a vast minority, and who only invest a fraction (even when considerable) of their riches. So, I don't have a lot of hopes on that, to really change the way of things, at least not for these person with that amount of power.

Is flying tourists in airplanes, transporting them in cars and serving everything via plastic containers really helping? How many corals die from one person's visit? The very people who claim to want to save these reefs are also contributing to their decline. It's a multifaceted issue, yet they demand less emissions while literally flying people in on something that burns more fuel per second than literally anything else. Or the targeting of the beef industry while the same people own large numbers of pets. It's easy to demand better of everyone else as long as you're still getting paid. The hypocrisy is mind numbing.

I feel sick about it. Yet as one small person, feel helpless, and that any/all of my efforts are futile. As someone who lives by the ocean, it baffles me that there aren't more rules and regulations when visiting the ocean. Ie why, if you visit the beach for the day, is it not a requirement that everyone leaves with a bag of garbage they've picked up from the shore (it is mind boggling how much). That may sound stupid, and again futile, but it seems our massively important, life-sustaining oceans aren't getting the respect and attention they deserve. Considering the health of the ocean balances life on earth, why aren't we making this a number one priority VS, well, all the other stupid sh*t everyone is talking about (over and over again). My little opinion. I wish I could do more and i wish people could shift their focus onto this hugely important issue

You're talking about the affected people? Dude, the affected people are the least important thing when it comes to corals. Imagine an acidic ocean, huh? The oceans are our planet's most important heat sink. "The ocean absorbs about 90 percent of the excess heat produced as climate change warms the earth". The corals are extrodinarily fragile organism. A tiny change in the ocean's temperature has devastating effect on the corals. They turn white because the algae inside of it dies, and the coral spits out dead algae - turning white. After small while, the coral goes from whitening to rotting. The corals have been dying for the past decade (and that's being very optimistic). "The Planet has lost at least half of its coral reefs Since 1950". And corals don't just regrow in a few years. "Depending on their size, barrier reefs and atolls can take from 100,000 to 30,000,000 years to fully form". All life in the ocean is interdependent, and we talk about removing a whole habitat from such a fragile ecosystem, If you're wondering "well, how is that gonna affect people": well, guess what: "Scientists estimate that 50-80% of the oxygen production on Earth comes from the ocean". Combine that with the melting of the poles. They reflect back a big part of the heat and are the reason for most of the ocean currents. Without glaciers, we got next to no ocean currents, which means that the oceans will just become a mass of static watter which will then turn more and more accidic (don't even get me started on the plastic front). Once the ocean is acidic enough, then it will be unable to hold any kind of life. Is there really any need to mention how people are affected by this?

There are so many wrong things said in this. A lot of stuff is just not true. Algae do not give coral color. “Heat resistant coral” is non existent and you can’t selectively breed when reproduction is asexual. Also one coral benefits when it eats another coral, they fail to mention that there are corals for several different types of water levels, temperatures, and flow requirements. Also I saw acans in the “algae resilience” section. Acans are not reef building corals, no amount of acans will make a full reef. Lastly montipora and acropora have thousands of variants and are reef building corals they also grow extremely fast but require a lot of light in most cases. If the depth of the reef was lowered by just a few inches, the whole reef would be at a slightly lower temperature and certain less light requiring acro and monti could grow. Aka knock down some corals and place new ones there and move the old ones elsewhere. And also that whole thing about bleaching was not true. Corals bleach when they literally die. There’s another type of thing that looks like bleaching called polyp bail out, the coral leaves it’s exoskeleton behind. They described polyp bail out and then called it bleaching. If temperatures get too hot typically polyp bail out occurs, not bleaching. The coral Hopes to find a better location to grow by jumping ship. Unfortunately, other corals will attack it before it finds a good location. Last thing, corals can reproduce sexually, which is much more quick and results in far more genetic variation, why are we not doing more research on little known sexual reproduction of corals…
