hey ninny, just saw this thread
 
the reef is incredible, i dived there about fifteen years ago.  unfortunately 25% of it has died in my lifetime due to industrial run off from the mines and increased acidity of the oceans
 
i have family who live up there and the only real substantial industry is tourism, the whole community will be affected by the loss of the reef
 
not to mention the countless dead species and life forms in the reef itself :frown:

The 25% might be fixed with corals that live a little deeper. And there's a lab trying to speed up coral adaption to the changing environment. This is just mending things though :frown: It is worrying but in some way I felt a little better after watching this. There's so much life, we can't destroy it all. Nature will bounce back after we fuck off :xx:
 

I found some more Attenborough with bugs :xx:

yeah i am overall optimistic about humanity eventually managing to stop killing everything too but the reef is gonna be one of those "in my lifetime' things i.e. when i was born it was a wonder of the world, when i die it will be nearly all gone
