Egypt's Red Sea coral reefs are under threat from climate change and human activities, which have led to a decline in live hard coral cover. The reefs are a vital habitat for fish nurseries and a major tourist attraction, earning Egypt an estimated $7 billion per year. However, some pessimistic projections suggest that climate change could eliminate 74% of Egypt's coral reef habitats by 2100. Just sad when that was your childhood. Possibly the last generation that could scuba dive and enjoy looking at beautiful coral reefs.
