Coral Reefs: Nature's Underwater
Coral reefs are vibrantCities
ecosystems found in shallow
ocean waters, often called "rainforests of the sea" for
their biodiversity. They provide habitat for over 25% of
marine species and act as natural barriers, protecting
coastal areas from erosion and storm surges. However,
climate change and pollution threaten their survival, with
nearly 50% of reefs worldwide already degraded.
Conservation efforts, like marine protected areas and
reef restoration, are crucial for preserving these vital
ecosystems.
The Importance of Hydration
Water makes up about 60% of the human body and is
essential for maintaining health. It helps regulate body
temperature, transport nutrients, and remove waste.
Dehydration can lead to fatigue, headaches, and
impaired focus, so it’s important to drink about 8 cups
of water daily, though needs vary by individual. Staying
hydrated is especially vital during physical activity or in
hot weather. Remember, foods like fruits and vegetables
also contribute to your daily water intake!
Have a nice
day!
