Bread and CircusesYou know about that canary in the coal mine, right?
When a canary kept inside a cage dies, the miners need to get out immediately. They are in extreme danger.
For us, the canary is coral reefs. They are dying now, at a rate never seen in human history. We are in extreme danger.
Capitalist commerce and industry are wrecking the planet's biosphere, tampering with the food chain that keeps us and millions of other species alive.

84% of the world's coral reefs hit by worst bleaching event on record
Harmful bleaching of the world’s coral has now grown to include 84% of the ocean’s reefs in the most intense event of its kind in recorded history. That's according to the International Coral Reef Initiative. Warming oceans cause corals to expel the colorful algae living inside of them, putting the coral at risk of death. Healthy corals are essential for seafood production, jobs and coastline protection worldwide. Scientists say it's essential to reduce greenhouse gases that are the main driver of atmospheric warming. Last year was the warmest on record, and much of that heat is going into oceans.
