This video concludes the Google Earth Tour of Reefs at Risk-- a virtual tour of coral reefs around the world with the World Resources Institute's Reefs at Risk project. This concluding segment summarizes the present status of coral reefs globally and provides a glimpse of the future for coral reefs if the threats from local human activities and climate change are not managed and reduced.
The Reefs at Risk project raises awareness of threats to coral reefs and provides information and tools to manage coastal habitats more effectively. For more information about the Reefs at Risk Project, visit http://www.wri.org/reefs
