Chasing Coral

[leepink23]

Just watched the Netflix Original documentary Chasing Coral. It documents the disappearance of coral reefs related to increased water temperature. Just wanted to let people know it's out there since today is its debut.

I agree, it really is very sad, hopefully more attention gets paid to these problems.

Its definitely worth watching, we need to be more aware of what is going on with the coral reefs. But it is sad to watch.

Very sad...I was apologizing to my tank raised sticks the whole time...

Any way to watch it without Netflix?

Any way to watch it without Netflix?

Not sure, but most likely not since its a netflix original.

 

[Flippers4pups]

Yep, you need Netflix to see it.

What a great movie that is terribly scary. Puts things into perspective. We in the hobby have got to find a way to make a change...

We need to act NOW or it'll be too late. The movie was sad and alarm-ringing. Was holding my tears looking at these beautiful reefs bleaching, struggling, and eventually dying. If we truly love the very thing in this hobby and care about reefs and ecosystems and our children, we all need to think about the things we can do to reduce our own CO2 contribution, spread awareness, and vote for policies that will help combat climate change.

Hopefully the general public will watch this. I have had many discussions with people who think global warming is just natural and will go up and down. But this time it is different and it is a sign that the human population has reached a tipping point and things are going to start happening that will effect the human population in a big way. Just use your tank as an example look how easy it is to have things go down hill an how it is hard to correct it.

I definitely think we need to get this out to the general public. I plan to share it on Facebook and try to get people watching it.

 

[OREGONIC]

This movie should be shared with everyone. I actually teared up while watching the movie.

At least I now know the secret of hot looking coral, it's just hot water!

Remember at the end, the guy said don't get depressed, get motivated to do something about it.
