  1. This was a good video but some information is incorrect. Warm waters do not kill the reefs. Infact reefs thrive more in warm waters and that is where they mostly are found. Also climate change is something we can't stop and we need to start accepting the fact that our beautiful planet earth is constantly changing and it's not a bad thing it's simply just something that happens. We has humans can not tell the planet how it has to exist and how mother nature controls that. Richard Lindzen mit professor of meteorology states if we as humans think we can change or control what mother nature and the planet does is crazy. Mother nature is a power beyond measure and we can not compete with that. What I will say is this. The problem with our reefs is the commercial fisherman wiping them out. See they don't tell us that cause it's where the money is. Research and science does not bring the money like fish sales do. So what do you think they want more healthy oceans or money. Think about it any living thing on our planet that goes extinct is because of humans. Climate change is a lie the truth is as simple as this we need to take better care of our planet. Stop the corporate world from destroying our planet so they can get rich. Because one day there will be nothing left of our planet for them to make money on.
