And certainly more minor property line disputes happen all the time--including situations where the infringement probably seems inconsequential relative to the heat it sometimes causes.
Certainly. My middle son was looking at buying a property in a near by town. He asked me to come an look at it. We had the actual shire plans for the blocks and while looking at the property lines, we measured the actual fence to fence widths. The block was being sold by the owner of an adjoining block and when we measured we found that the fence line had been moved by about 20 to 30 cm. On querying the owner about this, he was somewhat angry that we were questioning where the fence was as he was the one who had it built.
From what I could see, the builders most likely kicked the boundary peg out of the ground and just put it back willy nilly.
As a consequence, I did advise my son to have nothing to do with the property and we did inform the real estate agent of the problem. This would put legal responsibility on the estate agent if it was sold without the boundary line being corrected.
Due diligence is necessary if you are doing this kind of thing.
Data or it isn't true. Didn't see any data here. So just another propaganda piece by the pollyanna crowd "there's nothing wrong with the planet, and folks should just quit complaining!"
Oh, here it is. The reefs continue to be in decline with no relief in sight. That 30% is what they've declined to. Not a recovery. Over two thirds destroyed. Periodic bleaching events continue to utterly demolish local ecosystems.

The Great Barrier Reef is a good example of the dire calls about its impending destruction. As far as the [experts] of James Cook University are concerned, I have serious doubts as to the abilities of the researchers there. Far too much politicing going on.
Because it affects them more, the locals are more involved in caring for such without the interference of the [experts] who make their [expert] claims. The locals know just how silly many of these claims are and are now in the habit of not informing the [experts] so that the actual environments are protected.
