You 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.

Screenshot from top of linked article. Headline says: "84% of the world's coral reefs hit by worst bleaching event on record." Below this is a photo of scuba divers looking at dead coral in the Gulf of Mexico.
