Coral Disease Research Team say global warming is destroying coral reefs and calls for 'drastic actions'

Location: Coral Reef Targeted Research (CRTR), Australia

If world leaders do not immediately engage in a race against time to save the Earth's coral reefs, these vital ecosystems will not survive the global warming and acidification predicted for later this century. That is the conclusion of a...
