Albirea coralilor are loc prea frecvent pentru ca recifele să se poată recupera, spun oamenii de știință

Coral reefs are facing unprecedented bleaching events, with recovery time shrinking to five or six years, according to scientists. The global coral cover is now significantly below normal levels, threatening marine life and coastal resilience. The frequency of bleaching has nearly doubled, with the latest event in 2023 affecting 77% of coral areas worldwide. Urgent action is needed to reduce emissions and manage local threats to prevent further decline.
