Title: The GBR - It is going weel ...BUT

Quote:
The Great Barrier Reef is one of the planet’s natural jewels, stretching for more than 2,300km along Australia’s north-east.

But as well as being a bucket-list favourite and a heaving mass of biodiversity across 3,000 individual reefs, the world heritage-listed organism is at the coalface of the climate crisis.

Yet this week, a report on the amount of coral across the reef showed the highest level in the 36 years of monitoring in the north and central parts.

But that does not mean the crisis is over.

So the crisis was bleaching "killing" coral. But it is the best it has been in the entire years of coverage. Because...climate. ::)

The Guardian is desperately trying to spin the fact that the reef is actually healthier than ever into a doom and gloom scenario. ::)

They talk about online scams. But the Media is just as much a scammer.
My favourite is how Finland for so long, was listed as the most depressed, high-suicide rate, etc for so long.
But with a bit of $$$ - it's now the happiest place on earth.
