Better safe than sorry, that's putting it mildly though. Our reefs are priceless treasures, enchanting living wonders, so to all global warming deniers I ask, "how can you possibly risk being wrong about the importance of limiting CO2 levels?"

Coral reefs are crucial to survival, livelihoods and cultures of millions of people. The overwhelming weight of scientific evidence points to the need for action on climate change, these people do not have the luxury of time for more debate and impact assessments. Real action is needed now to curb emissions and hold us within 'safe' levels of warming.
