The losing of the treasure

According to Loft (2008) in his article, “Coral Crisis: Global warming, trawling, pollutants threaten the world’s coral population“, scientists are worried about the bionetwork in the ocean because of reduction of the nutrients in the sea. Also, the author mentions that the most dangerous problem is that most kinds of coral reefs are in danger and some kinds are getting damage. Moreover, he talks about the coral reefs starting to be a big issue this year. Besides, global warming is the main cause of the plight of the coral reefs. Indeed, the author mention that there is a good news which is that the scientists are now trying to find natural procedures to lower the ocean's heat. In fact the author states that not only is global warming the problem, but also humans play a part in the coral reefs pollution, for example by fishing with trawling and causing ocean acidification. Furthermore, the huge thing about the coral reefs is that the coral can feed a big number of many kinds of fish in the sea.

The author mentions the issue of losing the coral reefs, and the causes of losing the treasure of coral reefs. Moreover, there are many things that we should take care of to protect the coral reefs; for example, we should control global warming, are should stop trawling and the government should make a decision.

First, the effects of global warming hurt not just the coral reefs but also the whole planet's environment. The global warming has damaged the coral reef. In the year 2008 the coral reef dilemma started. The author mentions that 70% of the coral reef kinds are in risk. The global warming has many other effects on our planet. For example, the yellow sand which we have in Saudi Arabia and in Korea causes dangerous acid rain, and this acid rain is the source of a lot of health problems for us. Also, the acid rain effects animals considerably and earlier death, in addition to the possible for contemporary ecosystem harm. So we should prevent marine pollution by reducing the use of pesticides and fertilizers which form acids and increase the water temperature, which have a harmful effect on the coral's lives, and because of the pollution the fish are also diseased, because if we eat the fish we will also have health problems.

Second, the trawling effects are extremely bad on the coral reefs and the seabed life. The researchers discovered that the trawling harms the coral reefs in a dreadful way. It is true that when fishermen use the trawling they can catch an enormous number of fishes, but the thing is that they do not know that they are destroying the coral reefs. Moreover, trawling affects incredibly not just the coral reefs, but also on the seabed life. For example, the sponges and the flowerpot are destructive because of the trawling. So I think we have to educate fishermen and people in general about the risk of trawling.

Third, the government should protect the ocean from people who contaminate the ocean. The CO2 comes from cars, burning of fossil fuels, factories and cutting down trees. These are not the only things that cause the CO2 that influence the atmosphere. Even if we are the causal of the gases that warm the atmosphere, 97% of the CO2 manufactured and all of the water steam is out of our control. Also, the human part of global warming is a small element. However, if the government will not do anything about the CO2 gases, later we will be in big trouble. The CO2 can destroy the coral reefs now and everything on the earth presently. So to have a good income to the government from them, we have to save them from being harmed, so we must take steps to stop people from doing things that affect coral reefs.

In conclusion, the coral reefs face real dangers which humans cause. Protecting the coral reefs is the duty of people because if they would not protect them that means it will be completely destroyed. To protect the coral reefs we should manage our needs to reduce the pollution. Moreover, people should reduce their overfishing to keep the sea life away from damage. Finally, the government should face this problem and take an action to force any dangers that will damage the coral reefs from people.
