Global Issues

 Hi readers! We are really sorry we couldn't post yesterday, but we are posting today instead to make it up! We'll will be addressing different global issues that are harming our environment. Enjoy!

Water Scarcity

 The availability of clean and fresh water is becoming increasingly scarce in many parts of the world. Factors such as overconsumption, pollution, and poor water management contribute to water scarcity, affecting both human and ecological systems.

 

Massive Coral Reef Die-offs

Coral reefs only cover a small percentage of the vast ocean, but they’re home to about 25% of all ocean species. Ocean acidification, overfishing, physical destruction, and human pollution bleach and destroy reefs. Climate change disrupts corals’ food chain, compromising their ability to survive while encouraging the rapid increase of opportunistic fungi that transform these colorful coral forests into underwater graveyards.

 

Biodiversity loss

Biodiversity loss includes the worldwide extinction of different species, as well as the local reduction or loss of species in a certain habitat, resulting in a loss of biological diversity.
