When the ocean warms, the algae that give corals their vibrant hues are pushed out, leaving them as white skeletons.<\/p>\n<p>Marine scientist Greg Asner leads <a href=\"https:\/\/allencoralatlas.org\/atlas\/#1.00\/0.0000\/-145.0000\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Allen Coral Atlas<\/a>, a program that maps the world&#8217;s coral bleaching with the goal of conservation.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There are some <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/marine-heat-wave-coral-bleaching-alert\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">heat waves<\/a><\/span> where you and I might swim around for a while and actually start sweating in the water. Corals and other species that live on the seafloor are much more sensitive than we are,&#8221; said Asner, who&#8217;s also the director of the Center for Global Discovery and Conservation Science at Arizona State University.<\/p>\n<p>On both land and sea, 2024 was the\u00a0<span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/philadelphia\/news\/earth-records-hottest-year-ever-climate\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">earth&#8217;s hottest year on record<\/a><\/span>, according to the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>With the average ocean surface temperature hitting 70 degrees, the rising heat is speeding up coral deaths. It used to take years to kill a reef. Now, it can take weeks \u2014 sometimes days.<\/p>\n<p>Compared to Hawaii, the decline of coral reefs is worse in the <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/great-barrier-reef-parts-dying-record-rate\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Great Barrier Reef<\/a><\/span> and the Galapagos Islands, according to Asner. The problem is most severe in the Caribbean and the state of Florida.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s heart wrenching to see these huge areas, expanses of amazing biological diversity, just go. It&#8217;s like pulling the plug on a TV, and it&#8217;s just static, just goes blank &#8230; And the recovery is extraordinarily slow to zero,&#8221; Asner said.<\/p>\n<p>Without healthy and thriving reefs, aquatic creatures lose their habitats and coastlines lose a natural seawall that can protect communities from storms \u2014 preventing billions of dollars in flood damage, according to the NOAA.<\/p>\n<p>While the situation is dire, not all hope is lost.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a push to educate tourists to use sunscreens that don&#8217;t contain\u00a0<span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/sunscreen-marine-life-toxic-research\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">chemicals that are harmful to corals<\/a><\/span>, and solutions like underwater nurseries are allowing corals to repair and regrow, but it&#8217;s going to take time.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The next gen, the folks that I&#8217;m training now, they could be the ones who could see the recovery phase.
