Dive into the future of coral reefs with our latest episode, hosted by Kaylee Shae, featuring the rockstar of the coral world, Dr. Emma Camp! As co-founder of the ⁠Coral Nurture Program⁠ on the Great Barrier Reef and leader of the ⁠Future Reefs Team⁠, Dr. Camp shares insights on coral resilience, climate impacts, and her team's research to give our future coral reefs a better chance at survival.

In this episode, we explore:

• Introducing Dr. Camp

• The Basics: Why are corals important?

• Coral Resilience Research:

  Studying how corals adapt in labs and on the Great Barrier Reef by moving them to new environments, like mangroves, to boost their survival against climate change.

• Climate Change Predictions: We briefly discuss the subject of climate change stats, including the “climate alarmism” issue.

• Reefs & Human Rights: Coral protection isn’t just science—it’s a fight for communities hit hardest by climate change, led by women, youth, and Indigenous groups.

• Super Corals: What are they? Hint: Not Frankenstein creations, but naturally resilient corals thriving in extreme environments like thermal vents and the Red Sea. Dr. Camp breaks down how these tough corals could save reefs from climate change!
