Coral bleaching occurs when corals get too hot. Bleached corals are essentially sick corals and although they can recover, if temperatures are too warm for too long, the corals will die. Coral bleaching and in some cases death, is an impact of climate change.

Aug 25, 2012 - Fluoride and Fluoridation is not about opinion anymore but is now scientific and logical fact that fluoride is a total body poison when ingested. The medical profession is carrying out a crime against humanity and all life on Earth, plus harming the environment, because fluoride is being dispersed throughout lands and rivers, into seas and in the seas is killing coral ... fluoride seeks out calcium ... what coral reefs are made of. The Great Barrier Reef (QLD) has been fluoridated since 1964 !
