Now, new research from the ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog of Adelaide suggests that these extremely biodiverse areas will be hit the hardest by climate change-induced oceanic warming – and the wildlife is not ready to adapt.

With ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog’s environment ministers banning all single-use plastics from 2025, an explosion of eco-friendly alternatives is emerging.

An ambitious nationwide restoration program now seeks to bring them back. In South ×îÐÂÌÇÐÄVlog, the largest reef restoration in the Southern Hemisphere, Windara Reef, was constructed in 2017 to restore the ecosystem of the native mud oyster, Ostrea angasi, off the Yorke Peninsula.
