Brillant Braizlian Reef Discovered

Life for coral reefs has not been easy. Over the past twenty years - maybe longer - reefs have suffered major damage from pollution and global warming. That said, scientists just discovered the coral reef of Brazil's coast is twice as diverse as originally thought. Fishermen had talked about the amazing marine life that live in the reef, but scientists only recently declared the reef to be the most diverse in the Atlantic ocean.

To see pictures of the reef check out National Geographic's website. These pictures are sure to make your day better considering how easy it is to see pictures of bombed-out houses and natural disasters.
