#GreatBarrierReef and #ClimateCrisis
The current Parliament and the Government of Australia are delusional if they genuinely think we are 'On track'.
Also taking this opportunity to remind everyone that Australia is still struggling to address pre-climate crisis 'legacy' issues like 'Crown of Thorns' 'Run off/sediment', seaway traffic, other forms of pollution, among other things, which were collectively responsible for deteriorating the initial 50% reef coverage since heritage listing.

A healthy Great Barrier Reef is not compatible with global warming of 1.5°C or warmer.
Current world commitments, including Australia as major supplier of GHG producing resources, places projects to be 2.0°C or higher.
Australian Parliament need to stop greenwashing their commitment to #SaveTheReef, and make commitments that will lead to real results.

Two beautiful pork fish patrolling our favorite reef near Miami. I love the beauty of these fish and the way they school together.
