Fish are absolutely necessary for Coral Reef health

They play crucial roles in maintaining the ecosystem’s balance. Herbivorous fish, like parrotfish and surgeonfish, graze on algae that can otherwise overgrow and smother corals. Predatory fish help control the populations of other marine organisms, preventing any single species from dominating. Additionally, fish contribute to the nutrient cycle through their waste, which provides essential nutrients

Australia Among World’s Top Contributors to Climate Crisis in UN’s 2024 Sustainable Development Report

The new index ranks Australia as the worst-performing country in the world on climate action (SDG 13). This ranking considers greenhouse gas emissions within Australia, emissions from the goods we consume, climate change vulnerability, and emissions from fossil fuels we export to other countries. Australia’s low ranking is partly due to the SDG Index now
