Global warming has pushed Earth past a climate threshold, risking irreversible coral reef collapse, scientists warn.
A new global scientific report warns that Earth has crossed a climate threshold, with global temperatures 1.3°C above preindustrial levels, putting tropical coral reefs at severe risk of collapse due to warming oceans.
The report, authored by 160 experts, identifies the Great Barrier Reef as having already passed a tipping point at 1.2°C, with further warming threatening irreversible damage.
Scientists stress that exceeding 1.5°C could trigger cascading environmental disruptions, including the collapse of major climate systems.
While some studies show coral recovery after bleaching, the report emphasizes urgent action is needed to reduce emissions, pollution, and overfishing to prevent widespread reef loss.
El calentamiento global ha empujado la Tierra más allá de un umbral climático, arriesgando el colapso irreversible de los arrecifes de coral, advierten los científicos.
