It's AumSum Time.
What if all Coral Reefs Disappeared?
Then I will join the Avengers in searching them.
Oh AumSum.
A coral reef is an underwater ecosystem which is composed of.
The skeletons of marine invertebrates called coral.
They occupy just 0.1% of the ocean’s surface.
But support more than 25% of marine life.
If coral reefs were to disappear.
Firstly, there will be a dramatic decline in fish population.
As they depend on coral reefs for food as well as shelter.
Secondly, popular beaches around the world would be in for a shock.
As coral reefs provide protection to coastal areas.
By reducing erosion due to ocean waves as well as.
Shielding against the devastating impact of storms, hurricanes etc.
Lastly, tourism would take a huge hit as snorkeling or scuba diving.
Might go out of fashion as the underwater world.
Will no longer be colorful or beautiful.
