Hi, I'm Viyu. Ask me about the stories collected here. I answer only from them, with numbered links to the outlets that published them, and I say so when they do not cover it.
Maldives’ Coral Reef Ecosystems Classified as Critically Endangered in IUCN Assessment
All three Maldivian coral reef regions — North, Central and South — have been classified as Critically Endangered in the first global IUCN Red List of Ecosystems assessment of coral reefs, published on 22 October, with projected warming under SSP2-4.5 putting them at extremely high risk of collapse over the next 50 years. Using only observed changes over the past 50 years the regions would fall into the Vulnerable category.
