Footage of widespread coral bleaching has emerged from Seychelles. The video was taken as part of an annual survey of the Seychelles' Curieuse Marine National Park. Coral bleaching is a phenomenon connected to increased ocean temperature caused by climate change. When water is warmer, corals expel the algae living in their tissues causing the coral to turn white.
