Corals Adapt to Global Warming

Chuck1318 writes "Articles in Nature and New Scientist indicate that corals are more adaptable to global warming than previously thought. Large areas of coral reefs had been devastated by bleaching due to the loss of the coral animals' algae partner, which is sensitive to changes in water temperature. Some scientists had projected that coral reefs would all be gone in 20 to 30 years. Now it is found that a more heat-resistant strain of algae is able to colonize the bleached coral, returning them to life."

Re:Evolution works

Almost as bad are the number of people who claim that God couldn't possibly have used evolution to create the species. Yeah, well, it amazes me that people still believe in God, period. Let's face it, if you're willing to believe in an ivisible man in the sky, you aren't exactly all that up on logic and rationality.
