I’m not denying climate change. I was recently in Florida and it is, indeed, hot af.

The article is saying that there’s evidence that the heat is causing coral to die. They really don’t know the extent of the impact.

Vague article titles are just a pet peeve of mine. This whole article could have been summed up in less than 3 sentences.

Quote:

That would mean “significant and severe” bleaching will start in the next week and the coral could start to die altogether within a month, he said.

“It still remains to be seen if this event is going to be more or less severe than previous events,” Manzello said. “However, all of the evidence right now is pointing to the fact that it’s going to be one of the more severe events we’ve seen.”
