Topic Reading-Vol.1830-4/15/2017

Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Great Barrier Reef: Two-thirds damaged in 'unprecedented' bleaching
While super elite entrepreneurs are trying to realize their dreams to travel space as posted in yesterday’s Topic Reading, there are clear and present danger on the mother planet that needs immediate and decisive actions. Despite the status of World Heritage, Australia's Great Barrier Reef, one of the most irreplaceable and valuable natural beauties, is found to be in critical condition. The area of the coral reefs that is severely bleached seems to have stretched to 1,500km especially in the middle section, in addition to the already bleached northern section. The bleaching is usually caused by rising water temperatures as well as stress to the natural treasure. Global warming is mainly to blame because waters absorb most of the increase in the Earth’s heat.
Everyone knows the sooner effective actions are taken, the better the chance for recovery, if it’s not too late.
Enjoy reading and thinking which project should be prioritized, space traveling or nature conservation.
