Inside the race to buy coral reefs more time (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In a remote island nation in the Pacific, scientists are developing “fitness tests” to help corals withstand extreme heat. PALAU, Micronesia — The ride out to sea was, in a word, unpleasant. The coastal waters of Palau, an island nation in the western Pacific, are typically calm and electric blue, like what you might see on a screensaver or postcard. The country has put in place some of the world’s most rigorous protections to keep its marine environment pristine. But on this particular morning

And it reveals a big problem with the nation’s approach to saving endangered species. BIRMINGHAM, Alabama — On a sweltering afternoon in June, I stood in what was essentially a roadside ditch. Sandwiched between a four-lane highway and the parking lot of a faith-based recreation center near Birmingham, the ditch was filled with cool, flowing water, a bit of trash, and, apparently, some highly endangered fish. Jeffrey Drummond, a biologist at the US Fish and Wildlife Service, stretched out a shee
