Scientists say that one of our world's greatest natural treasures is now truly "terminal." This news comes after sequential, massive bleaching events — which is what happens when ocean temperatures rise beyond levels that coral reefs can survive.
Climate change is the primary culprit, and while it's long been suspected that reefs would be devastated by ocean warming, scientists were not expecting this much destruction for another 30 years.

I don't doubt ocean acidity is hurting reefs, but - according to scientists - they have been dying since I was born in the 1970s.

Again? Some group claims this thing is "officially dead" every 36 hours

I mean, humanity treats the ocean like a giant dump. Maybe we can try to just not frick our planet up anymore than we already have.

I agree with you. That said, when anti-capitalist entities who aren't shy about wanting to undermine a bunch of non-environmental policies pitch doom and gloom on the environment all the time, it makes reasonable people question their motives and tune out.
