Saving the Coral Sea

This is from the Coral Sea Campaign

Right now the Australian government is deciding the fate of Australia’s Coral Sea.

The government’s draft plan for Australia’s Coral Sea is a good start but protection levels need to be strengthened. 90% of the Coral Sea’s coral reefs are not given a high level of protection under the plan. The majority of species-rich coral reefs, important breeding sites for tuna and marlin, and critical migration routes for turtles and whales open to fishing.
