Το μικρό ντοκιμαντέρ (https://w3.grupobbva.com/TLFB/TLFB_videos_habitats.html) που ήρθε από την Ισπανία μαζί με το ακόλουθο μήνυμα
At a debate in the BBVA Foundation, leading international experts presented the findings of their latest research into the scale, causes and consequences of global loss of coastal habitats. These ecosystems, which include coral reefs, mangrove forests, wetlands and seagrass meadows, have become the most imperiled of the biosphere, due to the rapid urbanization of coastal areas and the effects of climate change. Their rates of loss, 4 to 10 times faster than those of the tropical rainforest, threaten the integrity of coastlines, and will reduce the production of food for human consumption, while causing a severe decline in biodiversity.
The video with a 24 min summary (in English) of the event is available to be viewed and listened at:

Please advertise and circulate this link as widely as possible as I believe this will be useful as discussion material in courses, etc.
Best regards,
