Why is the Great Barrier Reef worth saving?
The greatbarrier reef is in itself a place of great beauty and a source of huge biodiversity. If we want to keep the oceans healthy the bio diversity in the reef itself is a great contributor. However the truth is that whether it survives the onslaught of mans activity's or not will not stop the forces of nature from doing what it will do the difference is if we don't save the natural wonders of the world life will become far less pleasant for us. the Reef being just a small part of the whole.
How does society affect the Great Barrier Reef?
The Great Barrier Reef is shrinking, and it is unknown by how much. Climate scientists who subscribe to the theory of anthropogenic global warming (i.e. caused by man's activities) predict that the Great Barrier Reef may lose up to 95% of its coral by the middle of the current century. Although the coastline parallel to the Great Barrier Reef has been settled by Europeans for less then 200 years, these scientists believe that the Reef has been shrinking by 20% every 100 years. Climate scientists who subscribe to the theory that global warming is cyclical perhaps have a less drastic view, as they believe that the coral will regenerate, as it has apparently done so in the past. It is a very emotive topic. However, it should be noted that pollution and chemical runoff pose a very real threat to the reef. The water quality of the reef is affected by sediment and nutrients, and 80% of this is caused by cattle grazing on the land adjacent to the reef. Mud and chemical runoff tend to limit the sunlight that reaches the coral, causing it to die off, and they increase the macro-algae, which is a weed. Tourism is a threat to the reef, as tourist boats damage the delicate framework of the reef; fishing and pollution left behind by visitors also is a threat. Oil spills occasionally occur when captains of foreign vessels ignore the warnings about travelling around the reef, and venture too close (trying to save time), resulting in damage to their ships. It should also be noted that some 40 species which live in and around the Great Barrier Reef are listed as endangered.
How is the Great Barrier Reef dying?
The great barrier IS changing nf not in a good way. Its changing due to water tempurtures rising, over fishing and pollution. And the only people we can blame is US- the human race. We can improve it by NOT over fishing (for food or aquatic pets) and recycling all of our trash. It can be done! It will work- just try it! Every year, we LOSE parts of the barrier reef because of this- we really can't stop water temps, but we can change the other two.
Why save the basking shark?
we should save sharks because if we don't have sharks, lots and lots of us would suffer and it would be the death of the reef, if we save sharks, we will never suffer, and it would not be the death of the reef which is good!
