​Perhaps you remember the craze of late 2016 surrounding the alleged death of the Great Barrier Reef. News articles and viral tweets popped up with phrases like "The Great Barrier Reef of Australia passed away in 2016 after a long illness. It was 25 million years old" and mummers of defeated voices spreading have-you-heards trickled through the hallways. It was an eerie feeling. It seemed we'd all just lost a war most of us didn't know we were fighting, and we all had blood on our hands.
