Global News 
It’s not difficult to feel overwhelmed, hopeless, or even anxious from all the dire news about the fate of our planet, as climate change wreaks havoc on weather events around the world.
Experts say our rapidly-heating planet is also having a dramatic impact on coral, including in Australia’s Great Barrier Reef.
Awareness is growing on the role of warming ocean temperatures, and the resulting impact on these marine ecosystems.
Global’s Jackson Proskow reports on the very real implications of unhealthy coral.

So sad! 😢
F. P.
Remember when the Great Barrier Reef coral wasn’t going to make it, now it’s all coming back.
It's not just temperature. It's also lowered pH from CO2 which dissolves in water as carbonic acid. Add to that higher nitrates and phosphates from fertilizer runoff and corals can bleach. They're not very hardy. There's so many things that can't be too low or too high. Outside of extinction events, the ocean's normally pretty stable.
I dont think its caused by climate change. Anyone that has ever had coral knows it can handle a decent change in temperature and be ok. It's more than likely from pollution and pesticides
We need to pay more carbon tax asap!
I wouldn’t doubt if all the bombs, pollution and garbage in ocean has anything to do with it
Too much c02
So, the Sun, having been around a few Zillion years, and the ocean and coral a few million, all of sudden coral get bleached in the last 20 years. 😎
Such a disingenuous article. Look at this coral, its healthy, look at this completely different coral, yeah why don't they look the same? Climate change 😂 buhh
Don’t worry, Trudeau’s Carbon tax will fix it
😂🤣The PMO presstitutes pushing the fake climate crisis.
Bollox it is geoengineering doing all the damage. Wake up! Ffs!
sigh 😔
And who cares! There are more serious problems than this nonsense
Thanks China 🇨🇳 for
– building more and more coal-fired power plants, and
– burning more and more fossil fuel.
Hey global news! In new year, go from where you live, fly to hawaii and have 3 days there! And then fly to auckland and start streaming there, go to sydney for the biggest one ever! Next to Pyongyang North korea, then Hong Kong (My favourite), Bangkok, Mumbai or hyderabad you choose maybe, and dubai! Pt 2 is to moscow, then to london, and last but not the least, New York! Please do that on new year 2025! And there will be celebrations seen on stage! Even countdowns seen on the screens!
Climate engineering more like it!
All these lies are agenda driven.
“Fueled by climate change” 😂😂. Can’t have anything to do with the trash they dump in the ocean or the Fukushima nuclear reactor meltdown.
Trudeau's/jagmeet carbon tax is working 😂
The great barrier reef went through a natural bleaching up until just a few years ago.
All of the bleached sections are now growing again.
The average ocean PH is 8.1, which is alkaline.
More co2 in the water doesn't make it acidic it provides more food for organisms that photosynthesize.
Ocean temperature is crucial for corals.
The hotter, the better.
The coral triangle, where the great barrier reef is located, has some of the warmest ocean temperatures, which is why the reef is there in the first place.
Cirals are not affected by sea level.
Corals simply grow up to, or down to, their preferred depth.
Geologically speaking, this current period of time has been one of great expansion for corals.
The last 2 interglacials 120,000 years ago and 400,000 years ago, were much warmer and saw wide spread coral bleaching that was much more destructive to corals.
What truly does push corals into mass extinction events is global cooling.
Earth has been in a 2.58 million year glaciation referred to as the quaternary or Pleistocene glaciation.
The most severe extinction events have been at the end of the Cambrian, Silurian, Ordovician, Devonian, Carboniferous, and Permian periods of the Paleozoic era.
70, 80, and 90% extinctions of marine species, genus, family, and even entire orders.
A hotter Earth PROMOTES species radiation.
This means that new species appear and existing species grow and evolve.
COLD climate and low co2 level cause extinctions of species.
The climate change theory has this all backwards.
If the sea level is indeed rising, all this would do would destroy waterfront property for humans.
EVERYTHING ELSE on Earth would enjoy more water, more heat, and more carbon dioxide.
It would rain more often, which is more beneficial for plant's.
Photosynthesis requirements:
1. Infrared radiation
2. Water
3. Carbon dioxide
When the sun goes down plants absorb carbon dioxide to continue photosynthesizing.
The co2 level could be 7000 to 8000 ppm and plants would still enjoy the co2.
Mammals can exist in levels ip to 8000 ppm.
The navy keeps submarine environment co2 levels at up to 8000 ppm.
FACT: Anthropogenic warming theory NEVER factors in water vapor as the predominant greenhouse gas.
It has NEVER been proven.
Its ALL computer model predictions.
FACT:
Since the end of the Younger-Dryus cooling event the ocean has been rising 2-4 mm per year for 8000 years NATURALLY.
FACT:
Post glacial isostatic rebound, land subsidence, and beach erosion have been occuring naturally after the Cordillaren and Laurentide glaciers retreated from most of Canada to the 66th parallel north, where the arctic circle now exists.
Within 5000 years, Earth will be well on its way to the next glacial maximum.
FACT:
The current average global temperature IS STILL 59°FAHRENHEIT.
In the last interglacial 120,000 years ago, it was 6°celsuis higher.
FACT:
Earth has not been as cold as it is currently on average since the end Ordovician extinction 440-450 million years ago.
REMEMBER…
Heat – GOOD
Cold – BAD
What? I thought the carbon tax, increased inflation, unaffordable housing and non-stop insults from Mr Jet-Fuel Justin Trudeau was supposed to fix all that. DO YOU MEAN ITS NOT WORKING, GLOBAL? WHO KNEW? Media idiocy at its most extreme.
Some of these people still think they are living on a ball spinning at 1000 Mph
Same news everyday.
Its propaganda at this point.
lol 'fueled by climate change' so say the ExpertsTM lolol
Thailand and the Philippines are the worlds # 1 Ocean polluters, nothing to do with your Change of the Climate.
lolol
Shut up!!! They said the same thing about the Great Barrier Reef in Australia but that reef is THRIVING. Please shut up!!!
This nonsense has been completely debunked. It's pollution. Coral reefs love warm water, and thrive in it.
