If we didn’t care about the reefs at all and everybody stopped saving them, how much time would we have left to go see them? Ballpark.

And what reef would be the last one to die? In other words, which reef would have the best chance to win a hypothetical bar fight with microplastics, if humans didn’t have its back?

Thanks for the great answer! Let’s hope Big Momma learns how to punch plastic’s teeth in! 🍻

Can you farm coral or keep it “in captivity” like an elephant? It probably wouldn’t be a solution to the plastics, but would something like that buy a little time or save some species as a backup plan?

I’m joining the coral conversation without much background. Kinda shooting from the hip here, so I apologize if these are dumb.
