1st). Scientists say that living coral is going to die down to 5% in some foreseeable future. That is a GIVEN in my book.
2nd) The coral is NOT DYING due to warm water.
3rd) The Coral is DYING because CO2 from factories and vehicle tailpipes, which has intensified in the last 15 years because of RAPID world population increase , - The CO2 enters the water and forms an ACID which bleaches (kills) the coral.
4th) The warm planet and ALL oceans increases the chances of LARGE, strong hurricanes forming and hitting places like North Central Florida.
5th) Also stronger greater numbers of tornadoes. One big reason why home insurance is rising. The insurance people KNOW the weather.
6th) Warm air and warm water will cause greater rain and flooding worldwide.
