Repulsive Image
The world is now enjoying the luxury by exquisite coral decorations. Sold for hundreds and thousands of dollars, coral decorations have become a trend for rich people as “collectibles” as they regard. However, while we still have reasons to exult from the precious corals that we are extracting, we might need to pause for a while and imagine. What if we totally ran out of corals? Will our world be as good as it is today?
Coral decorations have been considered one of the reasons why coral hunters have been continuously surrounding posing threats to Great Barrier Reef - the biggest coral reef formation in the world; Tubattaha reef- considered to be the center of biodiversity in the earth; and many other reefs formation. It has been estimated that in 10years span, if this activities will continue, the oceans will ran out of corals. What consequences will we suffer if corals will be endangered and soon be extinct?
Consequences faced includes: daily tsunami, death for millions of fishes and continents sinking in the deep blue oceans. Now, what is more important making your house luxurious or preserving the health of our corals?
On the other hand, it is undeniable that there is an alarming need in saving the corals of our oceans. And saving them has become the main advocacy of our society. In saving corals one should promote awareness not only to you but to the public, there is strength in numbers.
We cannot deny the fact that corals are facing alarming decrease in number that could lead to extinction. There’s always a time to act for a change and to innovate ideas. Let your ideas and actions save the beauty of corals for destructed corals will create a repulsive and awful image for our nature. #
