Coral Bleaching Lie Exposed: Great Barrier Reef Thriving, Previous Damage Not Climate Related

German language RTV here reports: All the talk in the media of a dying Great Barrier coral reef near Australia is “a media swindle”.
The facts: Record numbers of coral reefs were already measured in 2024, and the coverage has indeed tripled over the last 12 years. [emphasis, links added]
According to RTV, “…coral bleaching due to high water temperatures has been proven to be a lie,” and [the recent reef damage attributed to climate change has a different cause. The reef has recovered.]
According to Report 24, all the media claims made on a yearly basis, e.g., The Guardian and CBS, of the Great Barrier Reef near Australia dying at a record speed and being irreversible is “a fairy tale” and “false, misleading or simply a lie.”
Report 24 writes that the damage to the reef was caused by a tropical cyclone that moved across the reef in 2009 and caused immense damage.
A study by the Australian Institute of Marine Science summarized the damage that included exfoliation and scouring, which removes all living tissue from the corals, and coral breakage, where massive coral heads and fragile branching corals broke off.
It had nothing to do with CO2 and climate change.
Moreover, according to scientists, coral bleaching is by no means a sign of a dying reef and does not produce a white, dead coral lump like the ones you can buy in a souvenir shop on the beach.
Instead, bleaching means that the coral has lost the algae living in it, usually due to various stress factors such as fluctuations in light or changes in water temperature.
This causes the living coral to turn white but not necessarily die.
Report 24 adds that occurrences of coral bleaching could become even more frequent due to the record growth of recent years.
The dying reef narrative began 12 years ago when the reef was severely damaged by a cyclone, with up to 85% of the coral cover gone.
At the time, real scientists stated that recovery could take up to 15 years, and this is exactly what has since happened.
The reef has not only recovered but also continued to expand.

BOTTOMLINE: “It had nothing to do with CO2 and climate change.”
The climate alarmist swindle in Australia consists primarily of 3 organisations The ABC, The Guardian and SBS. The Melbourne Age and Sydney Morning Herald also sprinkle a alarmist headlines between local petty political issues and analysis thereof, sport, and how bad antisemitism is and more sport.
Basically about 3% of Australians get their “news” (consisting political trivia, real sport, land rights for gay whales, womens sport , antisemitism , gay sport and the weather person explaining how the weather is always very scary due to climate change) from the ABC on any given day and the large majority of them are well over 55 and only watch it out of habit, while wondering what happed to that nice James Dibble who used to read the news
No one at all watches SBS really and the Guardian is such a dystopian woke sewer its readership are glued on nutcases, who can’t get through a day without being scared by the weather, or being told how they are being oppressed by someone or something ( not mention how much worse it is if you are an indigenous trans whale - yes they do exist according surveys by the Guardian).
No other media organisations give a rats about climate change as they are entirely given over to celebrity gossip and sport, which they call news and this where most dinky di Aussies get their news from , that and instagram and tic tok if they are under 30.
After that extensive and impartial and in depth survey of the Australian media and its “coverage “ of “climate change” , the solution is simple- ignore all of the above organisations, don’t watch and or read garbage from any of them.
Climate alarmists tend to look at only part of issues and extrapolate from anecdotes
