More than a third of coral reef fish species are in jeopardy of local extinction from the impacts of climate change on coral reefs, a new scientific study has found. A new predictive method developed by an international team of marine scientists has found that a third of reef fishes studied across the Indian Ocean are potentially vulnerable to increasing stresses on the reefs due to climate change.

Do you want me to turn this into a religious discussion?;) I personally believe we need to do our best to protect the earths resources, but don't really buy that we are responsible for global warming. We know throughout history that the climate has changed, just part of the cycle IMO. I would rather we focus on real pollution like the massive amount of(plastics etc) waste in the pacific ocean and the toxins we dump into our streams and rivers....
 
Actually this was auto posted by an RSS feed that I had set up. I don't buy a lot of things too if you get my drift. ;)
