Another "the sky is falling" warning. Yes, the earth's oceans will soon be boiling and we're all going to die. </sarcasm>

"Under the worst-case scenario, coral populations will collapse by 2100 and the re-establishment of coral reefs will be highly unlikely over the following 200-500 years," said the report entitled "Implications of Climate Change for Australia's Great Barrier Reef."

Under the worst case scenario, some area of the ocean that is now too cold to sustain coral will become more inviting, and new reefs would develop there.

Additionally, not all corals have the same temperature intolerances. This article is unduly alarmist, although the concerns about localized reef destruction due to pollution and excessive siltation are legitimate.

In complex, dynamic ecosystems, creative destruction happens all the time. Nature isn't a post card.

It seems the global wackos are coming out in full force. The whole global warming scare relies on 'worst case' scenarios on top of worst case scenarios. We have a better chance of getting hit by a giant meteorite tomorrow then any of these wacko global warming predictions coming true. It is not an honest science, but one driven by lies and propaganda.
