6 Reasons Coral Reefs Deserve Protection

In the world’s ocean, coral reefs play an essential role in supporting biodiversity and livelihoods, and in helping communities adapt to a changing climate. The array of marine life that relies on this ecosystem ranges from commercially important fish, such as groupers and snappers, to eye-catching invertebrate species, including sea slugs (nudibranch). More than 1 billion people depend on coral reefs for food and income. Reefs also act as a natural barrier during storms, helping to reduce the full impact of waves before they reach shorelines and coastal communities. But today, coral reefs are among the most threatened ecosystems on our planet.
