News:
Remy-
Rising ocean temperatures have devastated coral reefs all over the world, but a recent study has found that reefs in the Eastern Tropical Pacific region may prove to be an exception.

Peter -
For the third time in 5 years, an underwater heat wave has turned vast stretches of coral on Australia's Great Barrier Reef ghostly white, a desperate survival strategy that is often a prelude to coral death.
Now, scientists there have taken a small step toward helping coral survive in a warmer world. For the first time, researchers have grown algae in a lab that can reduce coral bleaching, as it's known. The results are a notable advance in the growing field of assisted evolution, in which scientists are working to alter coral genetics to help them endure hotter water.

Main Topic:
Starting a YouTube Channel? Here's some things you'll need:
1. Camera (doesn't have to be anything fancy - Could be your phone!)
2. Tripod
3. Color Correcting Lens (Clip on orange filter...Polyp Lab, Orphek, Coralvue)
4. Mic, Remy's choice - Rode Lavelier mic for iPhone https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00EO4A7L0/ref=cm_sw_r_tw_dp_x_ieDiFb1M0MWVA

The 3 Levels of YouTubers we talked about today:
1. The Documenter - you're doing this YouTube Channel for you. You want to
see your reef grow over time. This could be public or private.
2. The Presenter - you may want input from commenters, you may want to show
things off and get feedback. Sharing your experience.
3. The Content Creator/Influencer - You're writing outlines, researching,
making a video with the audience in mind. Consistently posting. Sustain
your hobby with extra income.

Some Tips from Remy's experience:
-JUST DO IT. (I delayed for months and months...just do it!)
-Have thick skin. Trolls await. It's inevitable, they will hurt your
feelings. Focus on those that connect with you rather than the people who
contribute negativity to the conversation.
-Get a little better with each upload.
