Ecosystem Coral Reefs

Coral reefs, due to their enormous variety of species can be compared to the tropical rainforests. Climate change and sea water acidification are the new dangers, which as in the rainforest, lurk in all parts of the world. This is in addition to such problems as over-fishing and pollution of the oceans, which have not yet been solved. Using many examples, the film offers us the basic knowledge to understand the complexities of this ecosystem.
