Jordan Tries To Save Rare Red Sea Corals That Can Take Climate Change

"In Jordan, researchers, activists and fishers are hopeful that their coral reefs — and the life they support — can survive climate change.

Corals in this northern part of the Red Sea have been shown to be far more resilient to warming ocean temperatures than corals elsewhere.

Even though they cover only 0.2% of the ocean floor, coral reefs support about 25% of all marine life."
