DESCRIPTION:Coral reefs are among the most beautiful and diverse places on
  Earth\, but\, like most other ecosystems\, they are under threat due to h
 uman activities. Deforestation\, over-fishing\, global warming and ocean a
 cidification are having catastrophic effects on marine food chains with da
 ngerous\, and often unknown\, consequences for mankind. This talk focusses
  on the value of coral reefs to human populations and the multiple threats
  that are currently operating to reduce reef health. It also discusses num
 erous ways in which coral reef researchers and conservationists are trying
  to reverse the fate of these incredibly important and fragile ecosystems.
