australia is a banana republic

How exactly could Australians lower the temperature of the sea?

It's entirely possible to lower the temperature in a localized area. Expensive as hell and impractical, but worth it to save a natural wonder.

Are you aware of the size of the Great Barrier Reef?

344,400 km2

That is just under half the size of Texas.

How would you go about cooling that area? Where would you put the excess heat?

The temperature of deeper ocean waters is much cooler than near the surface, so you could construct pipes to move cooler water up and warmer water down. You could also focus on the most heavily bleached parts first. Some of the reef would still die anyway, but at least you could save a good amount of it.

It's called the GREAT Barrier Reef for a reason

It's a good thing you don't need to lower the temperature very much for the corals to stop bleaching then. This sort of thing doesn't work on a global scale, but the GBR is definitively small scale where this kind of cooling would be effective.

It would be expensive and time consuming, but it would save the reef.

evolution mate, who are we to stand in its way

>>73456742
That article is irrelevent

>>73455717
The reef isn't dying, it's all a climate change hoax

>>73457117
How is it irrelevant? It supports exactly what I just said: exchanging deep water with surface water is not viable on a global scale, but works well for small scale problem areas.
