Unless changes are made soon, our children may be the last generation who are able to see coral reefs and the wonderful wildlife that can be found living on them. Due to the combined effect of ocean acidification and ocean warming, coral reef survival

Sadly us, the human race has been distroying all of our natural beauty. All of the wonders of the deep ocean has always been a mistery and people do want to explore it which is fine until then end up interferring with the balence of nature.

Coral reefs have declined in numbers all over the world at such an alarming rate it is a discrace to call Humans the "Upper" race. We have distroyed God's gift to us and it will not come back like some people say...sinking big ships so maybe some life will come.

I remember seeing beautiful natural coral while I was in Ohau in 1970...it brakes my heart to think and know that "The Kids Now" don't see what i saw then...it, thank God is still here, but we are losing this natural wonderous beauty all over the world.

The Next generation will not be able to see all the beauty I have seen in my lifetime, because of the greed of the human race...There distruction, dumping chemicals etc into the ocean. So SAD TO THINK THAT WE AS HUMANS HAVE DONE SO MUCH DAMAGE TO OUR PLANET.

Cher thanks for giving a heads up...I have known about this for a long time, I will forward this page to my friends. It would be wonderful if we could save what we have left in this world.

I think that is the oceans are truly being destroyed, then the land is the nest to go, and I prefer to follow suit. I really love my planet, my country and my circle of life. Without these I am nothing!
