Footage from Thailand and Kenya shows vast stretches of bleached coral, once thriving ecosystems, now ghostly white and lifeless.
According to a new global tipping points report by 160 researchers, the world's reefs have reached a point of no return. marking the first clear sign of climate driven ecosystem collapse.
The report also warns that glacia from the Alps to Greenland are melting faster than expected evidence of runaway warming already reshaping the planet. [Music]

4.08And in Brazil's Amazon, deforestation is pushing one of the world's largest rhine forests closer to collapse, a key climate system that scientists say could fail at just 1.5° C of warming.
4.36From Siberian permafrost craters to Europe's drying rivers, researchers say the planet's stability is weakening in ways not seen in human history. The authors are calling on leaders at next month's COP 30 summit in Brazil to drastically cut carbon emissions before more tipping points are crossed.

KE: Yes, cut emissions. Good luck with that. To me a higher priority is moving threatened populations away from coastlines and finding new ways to build cities that don't rely on oil and gas, but the oil people won this one. You can't pry an American’s hands off of their steering wheels no matter what threat is coming right at them. And from where I sit, the whole world looks like LA. they aren't going to stop driving if that's the only way they have to survive.
Humans have to go back to square one and redesign the way we live on this planet.
For now- We need to deal with the crisis we're facing today all over the planet, populations of humans need to be relocated.
The only thing that's going to stop global warming after we’ve let it get this bad is volcanoes, and they could very well happen because our planet is smarter than we are and has lived and survived longer than the human race.
I think.
Our planet will find a way to get back to balance, it could be in the volcanic eruptions of methane that are coming out of the melting permafrost.
Meanwhile we humans have to deal with the problem at hand.
SURVIVAL.
Populated areas are already getting wiped out and we need to relocate those people; build new settlements that are in harmony with nature not fighting her, and get humans all over the planet to stop hating immigrants because pretty soon we're all going to be immigrants thanks to what we’ve done to this planet.
Earth will win out, humans are disposable.
The focus should be on SURVIVAL now.
Seek higher ground; but not too close to a melting glacier..
That’s my2cents, a 77 year old woman who after being a journalist for 50 plus years, knows a lot.
[KE: Everything climate scientists predicted about global warming since the 1970s is coming true, only faster. But in America we let propagandists with questionable agendas convince half the population that climate change isn't even happening, and now we're all having to deal with the consequences.]
