EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we witness a stunning display of nature's resilience and vulnerability. The bleached coral, stressed by unusually hot water during an extreme summer, serves as a stark reminder of the impact climate change has on our delicate ecosystems. The Lobophyllia hemprichii stands as a brave warrior in the underwater realm, showcasing its endurance amidst adversity. This endangered cnidarian species fights for survival against rising temperatures and changing ocean conditions. As we gaze at this mesmerizing image, we are transported to the Great Barrier Reef National Parks Nature Reserve. Here, wildlife enthusiasts can marvel at these majestic corals that form an essential part of our planet's biodiversity. While it is disheartening to witness such distressing scenes underwater, it also serves as a call to action.
