We’ll have a conversation about the health of the ocean’s corals and why it matters.
A new documentary in the International Ocean Film Festival called Chasing Coral looks at the deterioration of coral reefs from rising sea temperatures and how all ocean life could hang in the balance. What do you want to know about the unique role of coral in our ocean ecosystems?
