Whatever “conservatism” is, it does not involve the conservation of a stable #climate, or the polar ice caps, or the #coral reefs, or the global food supply.

The Last #IceAge shows how rising #SeaLevels will transform #coastal habitats
Story by Chrissy Sexton, August 31, 2023
"The results of the study show that higher global temperatures will trigger a rise in sea levels that will lead to instability and profound changes to coastal #ecosystems, including #Tidal Marshes, #mangrove forests, #CoralReefs and #coral islands.
"'Mangroves and tidal #marshes act as a buffer between the ocean and the land – they absorb the impact of wave action, prevent erosion and are crucial for #biodiversity of fisheries and coastal plants,' said study lead author Neil Saintilan of Macquarie University. 'When the plants become water-logged due to higher sea levels, they start to flounder."
"In the worst-case scenarios, these coastal habitats, will shrink - and in some cases wash away - as they have in the distant past, according to the study."

ARK FOR A MURDERED WORLD
Scientists Cryopreserve and Revive Coral Fragments in a World First for Conservation
The new freezing technique could reinvigorate corals suffering from warming oceans—or even preserve human organs in the future.

#Waschmittel: #Ariel, #Coral und #Lenor patzen im Öko-Test
#Colorwaschmittel sollen die Farben der #Kleidungsstücke erhalten und diese dennoch gründlich, aber eben schonend reinigen. Und natürlich auch die #Umwelt nicht belasten.
Laut Öko-Test werden bei der Verwendung der meisten Color-Waschmittel allerdings auch jede Menge #umweltschädliche Inhaltsstoffe in den Abfluss gespült.
Nur vier Waschmittel kommen im Gesamtergebnis auf "gut".

#Coral feeds on nitrogen and phosphorus ions secreted by the #algae that grow on them; they also eat the algae directly to access that sweet, sweet nitrogen and phosphorus. They also encourage the growth of particularly useful algae, which the researchers liken to farming.

South-east Florida’s corals are now at the highest alert level for bleaching for the first time ever, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (Noaa), with “significant mortality likely” for its corals amid abnormally hot ocean temperatures.

Florida's coral reef is in danger. Scientists say rescued corals may aid recovery.
USA Today reports: "Some scientists and non-profits say they are optimistic that advances in the ability to grow corals in laboratories and nurseries could help restore the reefs."
