Coral reefs cover less than one percent of the seafloor, and yet they’re home to a quarter of all marine life, making them some of the most biodiverse places on Earth. But their future looks bleak. Decades of environmental threats like warming waters and ocean acidification have pushed reefs to the brink. Can we use science to bring them back?

@Dragrath1 5 лет назад

One thing that was both shocking and enlightening was to learn the paleontological record for coral namely how coral reefs have convergently evolved numerous times only to get wiped out in subsequent mass extinctions bringing disastrous circumstances for what species had lived at the time. And never before has one species been the driving force behind a major mass extinction, all of them required the concurrence of multiple coinciding disasters both to push life to the brink and then drop it off the edge. We have somehow in our short sighted arrogant greed as a species found a way to do both...

But as well as being a bucket-list favourite and a heaving mass of biodiversity across 3,000 individual reefs, the world heritage-listed organism is at the coalface of the climate crisis.

@jengilbert8858 5 лет назад

Would have liked to see the effects of disease carrying plastics on corals included. I know this channel is specifically about warming, but related issues like pollution from petroleum products seems relevant. Do the grown corals resist diseases carried by plastic pollution better than wild counterparts? Are the chemicals in plastic affecting coral reproduction like with other animals?

Many years ago, electrified metal grids were used to quickly create coral reefs to stimulate fish breeding and create habitats. Couldn't that be used to restore coral formations that have been harmed by warmer water?

Individually gluing pieces of coral onto dead reefs could only help a tiny area just because of the impossibility of people being able to physically cover 70% of the planet. But we might as well try everything we can.

@venomsn4kee 2 года назад

What I find an interesting way to point out the reality of climate change to people, is through showing the interrelated ways everything is affected. It's easy for anyone to think it's fiction because the reality sounds dramatic, but only because we don't see the bigger picture. It's really simple: one thing affects another. So it should be obvious that anything we do, has some kind of a consequence. Once people understand that, it's easier to convey the reality like videos such as this one.

Coral are not endangered of extinction. Once the sixth great mass extinction is over the few coral specials that survived will evolve into new forms as they take on new environments and whatever else survived the mass extinction.

@BiologyIsHot 3 года назад

Wow ocean acidification is a very very backburner issue for coral. I don't like that you brought it up. The heat from the CO2 is an issue way way before the acidification. Almost not even worth mentioning.

@thecreature7608 5 лет назад

What if we could genetically modify the algae to work the same way in warmer temperatures? And as a safety mechanism, only be able to live a short time outside the specific host coral. So that they don't do more harm than good. Could that work?

@daevaskye 2 года назад

Coral reefs are not dying! Bleached coral is a temporary phenomena that the reefs quickly recover from. Since most of the worlds corals live in the warmest tropical waters and it is known that during periods in earths history when oceans were warmer that coral reefs flourished, then how can warmer water be killing them? It makes no sense but does appeal to scientists emotionally attached to their anthropogenic climate change models and also gives them lots of grants due to the interest their catastrophic predictions generate.

Can Hot Mess tell us science, climate change information hungry viewers about cold water corals? They seem to get forgotten compared to the stony corals that are more visible. Maybe not as susceptible as they don't need zooxanthellae to survive, but they are still at risk from us pesky upright apes!

Even if coral reefs can adapt to a changing world, the animals on the polar ice caps won't evolve to a warming world. The world shouldn't warm.

Well, technically it is natural selection, it's just that the selective pressure is too big because environmental changes are too drastic because they're happening too fast for the corals to adapt.
