Jeff Orlowski's Netflix documentary, Chasing Coral (2017) got inspiration from the similarly themed film Chasing Ice (2012) about capturing melting glaciers. Coral is an unsettling film in which they the extraordinary beauty of the reefs are highlighted and contrasted with the dead coral-seen in the photo above. More proof to silence the global warming deniers-I fear for the widespread implications of the death of so much coral. Can it be reversed?-the film hints that they are looking into farming new coral to replace the coral that has already died, but I fear we are still years form that technology. The people in the film seem more hopeful than they should be-I hope they are right.
