Recently, the UNESCO World Heritage Committee has recommended which World Heritage Sites should be added to a list of “in danger”?
A. Great Barrier Reef
B. Ellora Caves
C. Yosemite National Park
D. Virunga National Park
Explanation:
According to the UNESCO in a draft report, the Great Barrier Reef of Australia should be put on the list of world heritage sites that are in danger. The Great Barrier Reef gained World Heritage ranking in 1981, but over the years due to accelerated global warming, and ocean acidification due to the burning of fossil fuels, the ecosystem that is clearly visible even from space has undergone several bleaching events in the past five years.
