I’ve been to Hawaii where at least in the places I saw, I’d say most corals are already dead or in the process of dying. It’s really ugly and boring. Very little life in the water there. No color apart from the few fish that can still thrive or at least survive.
We’re destroying more and more ecosystems. Everything is connected in some way. This is not going to end well. What ecosystems “downstream” depend on coral reefs? Those will be the next to be threatened.
