Tobago's coral reefs are in danger because of...
... an increasing destruction by tourism...
... waste water pollution...
... global warming of the oceans...
... and...
Do corals only die in Tobago?
No!
Reefs die all over the world.
What are the consequences?
Different experts - different opinions:
... visit the coral reefs...
... as long as they still exist. Because of the global warming - keywords: carbon dioxide and
greenhouse effect - coral reefs have to die.
Preventive measures to protect the corals by...
... limited attendance - only certain locations are accesssible for
tourists so other parts can regenerate...
... stricter supervision of tour-boats, because...
... it is reported that organizers distribute plastic sandals
to tourists to walk on the reef - and this happens in a nature reserve!
What can you do?
Act responsible!
Do not destroy the reefs neither willfully nor carelessly!
Do not walk on the reef!
Do not break out corals!
Be a good example!
Point out problems - in a friendly but not know-it-all way!
... show your love to nature...
... show your love to Tobago!
