Thu Times : Cheap concrete star blocks are good seeds for repairing reefs .(You know the giant ones they use for breakwaters)
"Great Barrier Reef has lost a third of SHALLOW WATER coral after warmer seas since Dec 2015 caused a mass bleaching "
If true, I think it was os the sea level dropped slightly ..that means that coral at the sea line would be above it and therefore exposed to more sun and therefore bleached.
That's why deeper coral not affected.

stewgreen re:Trump's war on the EPA
Bloomberg (very large global media footprint) + The Young Turks (US domestic 68 million views a month) spew toxic garbage.
The TDS unhinged antics of this corner of the American progressive left media are too much for one Trump loathing Brit expat in the USA ....
It's abut 15 mins and imho well worth a watch - some of the radiation related content might not be novel to BH visitors - what Bloomberg and The Young Turks do is utterly inexcusable. Fake news is totally the wrong description - barefaced lying is closer .... scum comes closer still. I expect Radio 4 / Guardian / C4 / Independent will serve up a slightly rehashed version as their own work.

...rather than denounce the various ‘No Whites’ internships and training programmes which have been introduced by major broadcasters, police forces, and so on using the so-called ‘positive action’ clauses in Britain’s equality legislation — all ultimately designed to reduce the number of white people in general and white men in particular in the workforce — Shadow Education Secretary Angela Rayner chose to blame “white culture”.The white working class, Shadow Education Secretary Angela Rayner claimed, “have not been able to adapt” to modern, multicultural Britain.
