The Super-Corals of the Red Sea

Coral reefs, some of the world’s richest environments, find themselves increasingly at risk as a result of abnormally high ocean temperatures and increased acidification, both consequences of climate change. Yet, in the Red Sea there is a ray of hope. The Red Sea is the hottest, and saltiest sea on earth, yet despite this, vibrant, healthy coral reefs survive here. If scientists can understand what it is about these corals that make them so resilient it could unlock the key to saving threatened reefs around the world.

You should have seen the barrier reef when I was young 15-20 years ago and used to dive it all the time. I still dive it, but its very dead and bland now.

It's so heartbreaking how much coral reefs have been affected in such a short time
