Study: Coral reefs in Caribbean have declined by up to 80 percent in 30 years By Associated Press, 7/17/2003 16:13 WASHINGTON (AP) In a study of Caribbean reefs, British researchers find that coral has declined by about 80 percent in some areas, a loss that may take many decades to recover. The study examined the health of the coral reefs across the whole Caribbean basin and found that at some sites the coverage of coral has dropped from 50 percent to only about 10 percent in just three decades. Coral loss was the highest in the 1980s, the researchers found. They said the rate of coral decline has slowed, but continues at a significant pace. * Reefs, forests and wetlands are the cradles of life on this planet. If we lose them, we eventually will be lost ourselves. Farmed fish aren't very good for you and dont taste very good. The planet is in crisis, and getting much worse under Bush who sees little need for environmental protection and rolled back those laws
