The Great Barrier Reef

The Great Barrier Reef, located off the coast of Queensland, Australia, is the largest coral
reef system on Earth, stretching over 2,300 kilometers. It is so vast that it can be seen from
space. Home to thousands of species of fish, corals, mollusks, and marine mammals, it is
considered one of the planet’s most diverse ecosystems. The reef plays a crucial role in
supporting marine life, protecting coastlines from erosion, and contributing to global
biodiversity.

However, this natural wonder faces serious threats. Rising ocean temperatures, pollution, and
overfishing have caused widespread coral bleaching, where corals lose their vibrant colors
and ability to survive. Conservation efforts are underway, including marine protected areas
and reef restoration projects, but the long-term future of the reef depends on global action
against climate change. The Great Barrier Reef stands as both a breathtaking natural treasure
and a warning of the fragility of Earth’s ecosystems.
