I went on a coral sea diving trip a couple summers ago. It was amazing, and I'm glad I got to see some of the beauty there before it's almost inevitably gone forever. Unfortunately it's hard to translate this type of loss into a language that most people can understand. Sometimes I wish that the effects of climate change were happening more starkly in terrestrial areas first, like mountains. If the ski resorts were all closing down because there was no snow I think it would shake people from their lassitude a lot quicker.
