The Great Barrier Reef should be added to the list of world heritage sites that are \u201cin danger\u201d, a team of scientists concluded after conducting a mission to the world\u2019s largest coral reef system.<\/p>\n

In a new UN-backed report released on Monday, the scientists said that the reef is facing major threats due to the climate crisis and that action to save it needs to be taken \u201cwith upmost urgency.\u201d<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>

\u201cThe mission team concludes that the property is faced with major threats that could have deleterious effects on its inherent characteristics, and therefore meets the criteria for inscription on the list of World Heritage in danger,\u201d the report said.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The 10-day monitoring mission by UNESCO scientists in March came months after the World Heritage Committee made an\u00a0initial recommendation<\/a>\u00a0to list Australia\u2019s Great Barrier Reef as \u201cin danger\u201d due to the accelerating impacts of human-caused climate change.<\/p>\n

At the time, the agency called on Australia to \u201curgently\u201d address the worsening threats of the climate crisis, but received immediate pushback from the Australian government under former Prime Minister Scott Morrison.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The long-anticipated final mission report lays out key steps that the scientists say need to be taken urgently, though the report itself was published after a six-month delay.<\/p>\n

Originally scheduled to be released in May before UNESCO\u2019s World Heritage Committee meeting in Russia, the report was postponed due to the ongoing war in Ukraine.<\/p>

The recommendations include slashing greenhouse gas emissions, reassessing proposed projects and credit schemes, and scaling up financial resources to ultimately protect the reefs.<\/p>\n

Australia\u2019s environment minister Tanya Plibersek argued in a press conference Tuesday that the UNESCO report unfairly puts the spotlight on the Great Barrier Reef.<\/p>\n

\u201cYes, climate change is a risk to ecosystems like the Great Barrier Reef but that means it\u2019s a risk to every reef globally,\u201d Plibersek said. \u201cThere is no need to single the Great Barrier Reef out in this way.\u201d<\/p>\n

Spanning nearly 133,000 square miles and home to more than 1,500 species of fish and over 400 species of hard corals, the Great Barrier Reef is an extremely critical marine ecosystem on the Earth.<\/p>\n

It also contributes $4.8 billion annually to Australia\u2019s economy and supports 64,000 jobs in tourism, fishing and research, according to the Great Barrier Reef Foundation.<\/p>\n

But as the planet continues to warm, because of the growing amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, the reef\u2019s long-term survival has come into question. Warming oceans and acidification caused by the climate crisis have led to widespread coral bleaching. Last year,\u00a0scientists found<\/a>\u00a0the global extent of living coral has declined by half since 1950 due to climate change, overfishing and pollution.<\/p>\n

The outlook is similarly grim, with scientists predicting that about 70% to 90% of all living coral around the world\u00a0<\/strong>will disappear in the next 20 years. The Great Barrier Reef, in particular, has suffered many devastating mass bleaching events since 2015, caused by extremely warm ocean temperatures brought by the burning of fossil fuels such as coal, oil and gas.<\/p>\n

During the UNESCO monitoring missions, reef managers found that the Great Barrier Reef is suffering its\u00a0sixth mass bleaching event\u00a0<\/a>due to heat stress caused by climate change. Aerial surveys of around 750 reefs show widespread bleaching across the reef, with the most severe bleaching observed in northern and central areas.<\/p>\n

Bleaching happens when stressed coral is deprived of its food source. With worsening conditions, the corals can starve and die, turning white as its carbonate skeleton is exposed.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven the most robust corals require nearly a decade to recover,\u201d Jodie Rummer, associate professor of Marine Biology at James Cook University in Townsville, previously told CNN. \u201cSo we\u2019re really losing that window of recovery. We\u2019re getting back-to-back bleaching events, back-to-back heat waves. And, and the corals just aren\u2019t adapting to these new conditions.\u201d<\/p>\n

Weeks before the mission, global scientists with the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change\u00a0released an alarming report\u00a0<\/a>concluding that with every extreme warming event, the planet\u2019s vital ecosystems like the Great Barrier Reef are being pushed more toward tipping points beyond which irreversible changes can happen.<\/p>\n

As researchers on the mission assessed the dire state of one of the world\u2019s seven natural wonders, they witnessed how the climate crisis has drastically changed the coral reef system.<\/p>\n

Following publication of the report, Professor Lesley Hughes from the Climate Council, said limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius along with \u201cdeep and rapid emissions cuts this decade\u201d are necessary to give the reef \u201ca fighting chance.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

A decision on whether the reef should be officially labeled as \u201cin danger\u201d will be made by the World Heritage Committee next year, once UNESCO compiles a more thorough report that will include responses from the Australian federal and state governments.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
