Scientists back global action on reefs | SBS World News
More than 2500 scientists have backed a push for global action on climate change to save the world's remaining coral reefs.
..."The international coral reef science community calls on all governments to ensure the future of coral reefs, through global action to reduce the emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases," it says.
Stanford University professor of biological sciences Steve Palumbi says scientists have done all they can to describe the severity of the problem and the solutions now rest with political leaders.
"To be honest, it's really difficult," Professor Palumbi told reporters.
"It's a turning of a corner. It's scientists giving up control.
"Our game plan is to be with the world leaders whenever they will have us and say, `Here's what we can do'."
