Great Barrier Reef still thrives amid climate doom narratives
08/08/2025 / By Willow Tohi



Great Barrier Reef coral cover at fifth-highest level since records began in 1985, per AIMS.

2024 bleaching linked to El Niño, but recovery underway; no fresh bleaching observed since July 2024.

Media narratives emphasize “tipping points” despite record coral recovery over the last five years.

Dr. Peter Ridd’s analysis shows current coral levels double those of 2012, undermining claims of irreversible damage.

Crown-of-thorns starfish control programs yield results, yet political agendas overshadow scientific nuance.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
