How China is destroying the world’s coral reefs

The video discusses the severe impact of Chinese poaching boats on the fragile coral reefs of the South China Sea, particularly near the Philippines. Under the protection of the Chinese Navy, poachers target giant clams, causing extensive damage to the coral reefs. The poachers use destructive methods, such as anchoring boats over reefs and using screw shafts to shred the coral. This large-scale destruction has led to miles of dead coral, replacing once vibrant marine ecosystems.
