Coral reefs are home to 25 percent of the world’s marine fish species, and cover 1 percent of the Earth’s surface, making them the largest single living structure on Earth. They are now also one of the most endangered: As of the end of this year, for the first time in history coral reefs have been included on the World Conservation Union’s Red List of Threatened Species.

According to the United Nations Environment Program, or UNEP, around 30 percent of the world’s coral reefs are already damaged, some irreparably. At the present rate of destruction, by the year 2050, a breathtaking 70 percent of the world’s reefs will have disappeared, according to the Nature Conservancy.
