Good ay Everyone! Its Bindi Irwin!

Parents and kids welcome to the Australia zoo and I hope you’re having a good day so far. Now today we are going to be talking about the Rumors and myths of Great Barrier Reef and global warming.

Ok now some random facts about the Great Barrier Reef:

Whoever tells you the Great Barrier Reef is being bleached is a liar!

The Great Barrier Reef is getting better as you can tell from these photos

Look I’ve been studying animals for a long time. And when I mean studying I mean feeding and wrestling, HA HA HA HA

From “Studying” these fishes I have concluded that if they didn’t like something they would move; I mean they have the whole coral sea for god sake.

Just like the polar bears and sea lions moved when …show more content…

If you know these three things and don’t want to go, I’ll give you a free copy of my un-edited overpopulation essay. Okay? okay

Let me go over all of the things that people say about Great Barrier Reef that is false but I’ll tell you the scientific answer.

Coral is dying. No, it’s not the bleach is not. did you just see my photos? they look the same as they did when I went there with my dad.

Global Warming is real. AS IF. If you are the type of person that believes in that then you must believe in alien, when people ask me do I believe in global warming an alien pops in my head that how ridicules that idea is.

And a thing that I get all the time. How long do you think the Great Barrier Reef is going to survive? The Great Barrier Reef is the heart of the Australian ocean. The Great Barrier Reef is going to live until the earths last days alive. And will have a soul of a youth and a face of a baby.

Okay that is all I have for today on the Great Barrier Reef. Remember that the hater are going to hate and because global warming is fake dory is going to keep swimming. Ladies and gentle men, boys and girls have the best time of your life at the AUSTRALIA ZOO SEE YA

That being said, one would see the importance in preserving the integrity of this structure. Elizabeth Kolbert’s choice to explore the destruction of this massive landmark will surely evoke passion for her subject matter and as a reader had no difficulty depicting her passion. I favor the assumption that other readers will react in a similar manner with the thought that the Great Barrier Reef is in peril. Much of society is only concerned with what affects them personally In chapter seven, she piggybacked with atmospheric scientist Ken Caldeira on One Tree Island to find out learn about ocean acidification and her findings show neither good news nor promise concerning the future of the ocean’s coral reefs. The tone of the chapter is that of death: the balance of coral reef revolves around life and death in its current state.

The increase in the changes of climate is affecting the delicate coral reefs. Coral reefs depend on a balanced temperature to thrive. The increased water temperature due to global warming are causing the coral to become bleached. They turn white and die. This also kills the wildlife and algae that live in them.

1. It is a scientific fact that biodiversity is greatest near coral reefs and estuaries. But because of human influence coral reefs around the world are dying. Human coastal development, pollution, ocean warming, and ocean acidification are all things that threaten them. The World Research Institute estimated that about ¾ of the worlds shallow reefs are threatened by climate change, pollution, and overfishing.

Even as the ocean is warming, much of the coral cover will still remain. We will see a rise in sea-level but to a limited extent. Working to adapting and mitigating to these climate changes will prove successful. Efficient land-based conservation efforts and sanctuary management work will be crucial for facing these climate

Great Barrier Reef Reading this article, regardless of its unpleasant subject, was really enjoyable. Rowan Jacobsen writes a viral article entitled “Obituary: Great Barrier Reef (25Million BC-2016)” in Obituary genre. In this article the author wants to show us the importance of Great Barrier Reef and its oldness by writing in obituary genre and using different method like personification and hyperbole to make us pay attention to the Reef. To reach this goal and show his credibility, the author used another authors’ idea such as Veron. As we can guess some authors are disagree with this method.

The event of coral bleaching was executed and monitored under Coral Bleaching Response Plan developed from Climate Change Group at the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority (GBRMPA) by Australian and Queensland Governments. There were four mechanisms constituted in the plan namely system of early warning, response to incident, actions of management, and strategy of communication (GBRMPA, 2010). First Components in Coral Bleaching Response Plan: Early Warning System In this steps of the response plan, it was subdivided into several works which were prediction of bleaching events by weather or climate forecast before summer, followed by checking temperature stress during summer, then detection of bleaching signs, after that inspections on site for reports and threshold determination (GBRMPA, 2010). The prediction of the probability of coral bleaching occurrence was take charged by two agencies namely Australian Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)based on climate forecast before the summer season (GBRMPA, 2010).

This means that the reefs are losing their rigid structures. The reefs still have hope to become recovered from the effects of bleaching. The document states that “for the recovered reef, live coral cover was comparable to the undisturbed reefs across all zones and exposures” which shows that a successful coral recovery can result in the corals returning to their natural state before the bleaching process (Graham). These two studies support each other because the Chauka’s study shows that light exposure due to the lack of turbidity results in coral bleaching while Graham’s study shows that the sloped and crested reefs experience less light exposure resulting in less coral bleaching. Another study by Emily Hardman, a professor of the School of Ocean Sciences at the University of Wales, discusses the effects of coral bleaching on the reefs in Rodrigues which are located in the Indian Ocean.

These issues aren’t going away by themselves. The Reef needs saving and I’m going to tell you exactly why and how we can help. Global warming causing coral bleaching Firstly, the Great Barrier Reefs issue with coral bleaching is escalating beyond what we thought was possible. Global warming is the increasing temperatures due to greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide that is released from cars into the atmosphere.

Warmer sea temperatures damage coral reefs that usually attract thousands of tourists wanting to snorkel and scuba dive in the world’s second largest barrier reef. Belize however, is already experiencing episodes of extreme coral bleaching all without recovery. Studies have shown that if temperatures keep rising, Belize is going to lose every one of its beaches by the end of the century. Moreover, due to increased flooding and lack of proper infrastructure, Belize has had an increase in dengue and now zika outbreaks. (Fuller, 2012)

In life, tragedies that affect many people often shed light upon issues that would not have gone unnoticed or unsolved. In life, many parallels can be seen with this theme of tragedies and realizations. One that can be seen is the death of The Great Barrier Reef. The author Brian Howard states “Death among the organisms that build the reef’s structure is most likely

The coral bleaching phenomenon is occurring all over the world’s coral reefs and it is still happening right knows without we even noticing it. Various approaches have been applied to save this extraordinary God-given structure before it vanishes completely from the earth. However, the world probably should be more concern on the main issues that leads to this problem in the first place. Three major factors that contribute to coral bleaching include the rise in ocean temperature, changes in salinity as well as underwater sedimentation. The ocean that covers 70% of the earth surface play a major role in regulating the earth’s temperature and sometimes, the ocean itself can ‘overheat’.

Coral reef destruction Last year, scientists remarked the "unprecedented" collapse of Florida's reef, that expands along the south-eastern part of the state of Florida. This ecosysten, that was the only barrier reef in the continental US, was attacked by bleaching in 2014 and 2015 and is now is "beginning to dissolve away", according to Chris Langdon, a coral expert at the University of Miami. More than 80% of shallow water reefs of Christmas Island have died and it has been shown by pictures released to the public not too long ago, that 90% of the reefs in Okinawa, Japan were bleached as well. This is an alarming news, not only because it will affect marine life's ecosystems, but us as well.

In this research paper we will explore more about coral reefs and their importance. Coral reefs are communities of living organisms. They are made up of fishes, plants, and many other creatures. They have been around for millions of years: less than the 0.1% of the world’s ocean floor Is covered by coral reefs, however they grow very slowly, from 0.3 cm to 10 cm per year.

Coastal development: The growth of coastal cities and towns generates a range of threats to nearby coral reefs. Degradation of coral reefs — can result in lost tourism income in countries that are dependent on reef-based tourism and also can reduce fish populations Coral Reef Degradation is caused by natural and man-made events. ... Water pollution comes in a variety of different sources, oil, gas, and pesticide, They poison coral and marine life. Coastal construction — can cause chronic sedimentation, sewage effluent, industrial discharge, and changes in water flow and run off, which can directly affects the coral increasing rated and metabolic activities as well as it directly kills all of the corals Removal of reefs — can result
