Sad things we are living in our generation.

Looks like when all the coral dies in the ocean we are going to be the only people to re populate the ocean! :)

I saw a documentary recently - there are some groups that started coral farms and they put together diving tours where instead of just diving/snorkeling, the participants help re-seed coral graveyards. I hope it gathers momentum and that their efforts aren't a day late, a dollar short.

That is awsome, hopefully more people get turned onto things like that, to keep the cycle going!

All of this had been common knowledge for decades...media just likes to make it seem like new realizations have been made.

I tell the wife all the time how we (I) have a "noahs ark" in our living room. She just rolls her eyes though. But its most definatly true that it will be us (reefkeepers) to maintain the existence of sure to be extinct animals! You guys think coral is expensive now, just wait a few years!
