Finally saw my first unbleached coral today, after a week of transects. This being my first time on the barrier reef, if I didn’t know I would think this is what corals normally look like (next photos).

It takes about 7 or 8 days of flying, in a small plane or helicopter, to assess coral bleaching throughout the
#GreatBarrierReef. Afterwards, the sense of grief is overwhelming. (Photo from 2016). pic.twitter.com/l7CB6kqkRT

@abcnews’s most ratio-ed tweet ever? The latest in an ongoing series of nonsensical “good-news” stories about the#GreatBarrierReef. No mention of anthropogenic heating or greenhouse gas emissions, or the current mass coral bleaching - the first during La Niña conditions. https://twitter.com/abcnews/status/1506383000979783689 … -
As the
#GreatBarrierReef bleaches again, I wrote something about hope. The locked-in climate damage is not where our love of the Reef ends. It is the middle of our story. It is the pause, as the tide turns.

"The
#GreatBarrierReef is dangerously close to another mass bleaching event, which would make it a catastrophic 4th such event in 6 years.

Corals on the
#GreatBarrierReef are not supposed to bleach in cooler La Nina summers. 2022 is a first, thanks to anthropogenic heating. It's been a mere 24 years since the first 1998 mass bleaching occurred during an El Nino heatwave. https://www.smh.com.au/politics/federal/great-barrier-reef-cops-coral-bleaching-event-ahead-of-un-inspection-20220317-p5a5bc.html?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Twitter#Echobox=1647490825 … -
Previous bouts of mass coral bleaching have usually straddled more than one of the internal boundaries within the
#GreatBarrierReef Marine Park - but mass bleaching has NEVER been defined by arbitrary Park boundaries. Not to mention the Torres Strait region north of the Park. pic.twitter.com/23kJDA1mdu

Good news - Arthur and Florence Bay, Magnetic Island,
#GreatBarrierReef almost no bleached corals. Big contrast to Geoffrey Bay yesterday, 3km away, 60% bleached. In water surveys vital to understand bleaching impacts. http://Coralseafoundation.net#coralbleaching2022pic.twitter.com/AqSIBPHp0M
