Climate alarmists have continually claimed that the Great Barrier reef is dying because of climate change. Unfortunately, for them, record coral cover and growth over the last two years is shooting a hole in that narrative. (1)
The Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS) reported that the Great Barrier Reef's central section and northern section now have record coral cover. A natural event, a crown-of-thorns outbreak, prevented the southern section reaching record level too.
The AIMS annual survey gives the shocking result that not only was last year a record, but this year is even better. There is more coral cover on the Great Barrier Reef than ever recorded.
