That “obituary” is misleading and semi-fictional. The reef is in bad shape to be sure, but it is not completely dead by any means. The majority of bleaching occurred at the far north end and surveys indicate that about 22% of the coral is dead. Many scientists have said that it may be too late to save the reef, but it has certainly not been “pronounced dead”.
