It's crazy how vulnerable they are. Didn't...I think it was the Caribbean lose most of its coral reef in one year just because of one hot water surge? One climactic change, it goes white and then it's dead (bit like people). Any articles out there on the ramifications once that happens?
That's just the corals {phylum}....
Read up on ocean acidification {PH level} through massive co2 absorbtion.
The next {or concurrent} Phylum to go will be the mollusks. Everything from snails to octopi will die en-mass to due the inability of said creatures to form shells or beaks........
Heat and Acid......
That does'nt even include the garbage content in the sea and it's ramifications.
Thats it from me on this.
It's grim.
