🪸 CORDIO East Africa have released the Western Indian Ocean (WIO) Regional Bleaching Alert Summary Report for the 2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣4️⃣ Season which was #severe due to El Niño, positive Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) phases, and record global temperatures starting in May 2023. These conditions elevated sea surface temperatures, causing widespread coral #bleaching and #mortality. 7️⃣3️⃣ % of field observations showed moderate to severe bleaching: 43.3% medium severity and 30.9% high severity. Coral mortality was mostly low (34.3%) and medium (29.1%), with 9.9% high mortality. Further high-mortality cases may be confirmed later. For more information you can read the report here ➡ https://lnkd.in/eaUCyW3B Additional resources #ForCoral reef bleaching can be found on the ICRI Hub ➡ https://lnkd.in/eCFcBE5B

Did you know that specific types of coral may have the potential to "seed" and revive struggling coral reef ecosystems? Together with partners and coastal communities, we’ve mapped resilient reefs in 7 countries that can help regenerate those damaged by #ClimateChange. Coral Reef Rescue Initiative

🌊🐠Today, the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change, in collaboration with WCS, launched the Fiji National Hub for Coral Reef Conservation. The Hub will serve as a national forum for coordinating and advising on coral reef conservation efforts in the country. Fiji’s coral reefs are vital for supporting local livelihoods, as well as underpinning food security and our economy. This work is being undertaken through the Global Environment Facility funded Coral Reef Rescue: Resilient Coral Reefs, Resilient Communities Project. Coral Reef Rescue Initiative WWF-Pacific Global Development at UQ Together, we're working towards safeguarding resilient coral reefs 🌏💙 #CoralReefRescue #FijiConservation

The coral crisis is a #ClimateCrisis, and we need urgent action to dial down marine heatwaves. 🐠 Every fraction of a degree matters for coral reefs and marine life. To protect our ocean, we must meet the goal of limiting global warming to 1.5°C. Do you think enough is being done to cut #FossilFuels? Coral Reef Rescue Initiative
