🚨 The findings of the 2025 Global Tipping Points Report reveal just how urgently we must act on climate to protect coral reefs and our beloved blue planet as a whole. 👇 Often called the “rainforests of the sea”, coral reefs host an abundant variety of sea life. While they only cover approximately 1% of the ocean floor, they provide core habitat for about a quarter of all ocean species. These reefs also act as ’speed bumps’ to protect shorelines from storm surges during hurricanes, cyclones and tsunamis. 🌊 But these vibrant and essential ecosystems need our help now more than ever. Scientists report that coral reef collapse is demonstrating the first climate “tipping point,” when a small change tips a system into a potentially irreversible new state. We must act now—and quickly—to address this alarming news. ⚠️ 🗣️ ACT to protect our ocean: https://bit.ly/438LIn6 🔍 LEARN about the report’s findings in TIME: https://bit.ly/4q5NJuh 📊 READ the full report: https://bit.ly/3uMutqB #GlobalTippingPoints #ClimateTippingPoint #CoralReefs #Conservation #MarineConservation #OceanConservation #WildlifeConservation #Climate #ClimateAction #ClimateScience #NatureConservation

Sustainability isn’t a trend—it's the only solution to keeping U.S. seafood on our plates and thriving biodiversity in our ocean. Earlier this year, the administration’s Executive Order 14276 directed NOAA Fisheries to reduce regulations. The proposed rollbacks to regulations, along with budget and staffing cuts for NOAA Fisheries, risk a future with fewer fish and fewer fishing opportunities for fishermen and families. Add your name and demand protections that ensure strong fisheries and sustainable seafood, for today and tomorrow. Act now: https://bit.ly/4nI6bqZ
