This time last year we conducted our first expedition as part of the Inkfish Coastal Seas program, studying the mesophotic coral ecosystems of Curaçao in collaboration with the Carmabi Foundation: youtube.com/watch?v=bCmDpX…

Breaking News: Threatened Status of Corals Updated. New updates by the IUCN Red List report that 44% of stony coral species are threatened with extinction—an 11% increase since 2008. Acropora corals are in bad shape = 99 (of 150) species are listed as Endangered!

WA is in the midst of its 2nd worst marine heatwave, with no end in sight. A reminder that action for Real Zero is needed now if we are serious about protecting marine biodiversity for the future. It is not too late!

Ningaloo’s northern reefs are bleaching with some corals already dying.🪸💔 Even ancient Porites, centuries old, are ghostly white. But south & outer reef corals fight on. 🤞 Hoping for cooler waters & recovery. 🌊🙏

I wish people could understand that the ocean is not just a massive amount of salt water, but rather it's a living system. What we put into the ocean changes the chemistry of not just the ocean, but of the planetary functions as a whole. TIME time.com/7290408/sylvia…
