Obituary: Great Barrier Reef
(25 Million BC – 2016)
Climate change and ocean acidification have killed off one of the most spectacular features on the planet. https://shar.es/1EGAbHRIP, Great Barrier Reef. While I didn’t know you personally, you were on my bucket list. I’ll still make a visit and mediate in your memory. You’ll be missed.
So The Great Barrier Reef was official pronounced dead today…
This is the worst news in the history of things to happen. Ever.
Remember being young and thinking that maybe, one day, you could go scuba diving at this world wonder? See all the beautiful corals pulsing in their alien way, the fish swimming and darting around them? Watch sea stars slowly slide along the seabed?
2016 is officially the worst
No. Do your research at don’t listen to melodramatic travel writers, talking about shit they have no idea about.
