...on the subject of polyps...I would certainly believe Andrew Bolt.
...on the subject of polyps...
You never struck me as someone that would want Billions upon Billions of migrants from the middle east up there in Nth QLD noco, But it appears that they are on their way.... you just keep up the work cooking that reef of yours.
'Hot Water Corals in the Persian Gulf Could Help Save the World’s Reefs'... read the full artical below

ten percent of the current diversity, should suit your view of 'far N'Q' down to a tee...
NocoIn the attached link I could not read anything about man made Global Warming affecting our corals....
Above-average sea water temperatures caused by global warming have been identified as a leading cause for coral bleaching worldwide.[2
Triggers
Coral bleaching is theorized to be a generalized stress response of corals that may be caused by a number of biotic and abiotic factors, including:
increased (most commonly due to global warming) or reduced water temperatures[7][8][9][10]
While most of these triggers may result in localized bleaching events (tens to hundreds of kilometers), mass coral bleaching events occur at a regional or global scale and are triggered by periods of elevated thermal stress resulting from increased sea surface temperatures.[25] The coral reefs that are more subject to continued bleaching threats are the ones located in warm and shallow water with low water flow.
Mass bleaching events
Bleached Acropora coral (foreground) and normal colony (background), Keppel Islands, Great Barrier Reef
Most evidence indicates that elevated temperature is the cause of mass bleaching events. Sixty major episodes of coral bleaching have occurred between 1979 and 1990,[28][29] with the associated coral mortality affecting reefs in every part of the world. In 2016, the longest coral bleaching event was recorded.[30]
Noco
So you completly missed these statements in that particular link Noco ? Or did you think no one would bother actually checking it out ? Or doesn't it matter what was actually said because you and Andrew Bolt are saying it's just not true ?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coral_bleaching
So Noco there is global warming taking place (which is killing coral reefs, melting the ice caps, creating record temperatures around the world... but it isn't manmade global warming.
Must be a computer glitch or an Act of God I suppose.
Priceless...
How many times must you be told it has to do with the Sun......Go back on previous post where I hope you will take note of the activities of the Sun and how it affects on Earth.
The Great Barrier Reef is very resilient and has handled many stresses over 500,000 years.....It always recovers.
I am still waiting for you to prove to me where Andrew Bolt has given misinformation.
Jesus ride Dinosaurs... around Jerusalem? Probably in his wilder, pre-Earthling years before God give him a real job?

So hang on!
You're implying climate change cannot happen without human influence?
Just.
What.
The.
F###????
On the major changes in the past, two happened quickly due meteors and volcanic eruptions, the other three took an average of 5,000 years.
The current is very different.
Like the one that took out the Mayans?
Agree, there have been many smaller patches as with the warming in Greenland as Noco mentioned 1000 years back. The Mayan drought was punctuated as well with cultural upheaval too.
However the alarming warming at the poles is displacing moisture and now creating increased weather havoc, extreme winds, storms and floods. And droughts also wiping out some areas concurrently. The science? its now observable to those with eyes open.
I dunno cobber, it could have been the Little Ice Age that knocked 'em down. But like coral reefs, nature always recovers and we will see them again for sure. Giddy Up dinoboys
We humans might not be around to see this time though. Maybe a handful of us.
