2. Protecting the environment
Conserve water - the
less water you use,
the less water gets
wasted and Eventually
finds it's way back to
the ocean.
Volunteer - Volunteer
for the local beach
clean ups and reef
clean up programs.
Because being apart of
the solution is better than
being apart of the
problem.

numerous species of fish in the Great Barrier Reef, with
over 80 different species in the family in total. Typical
characteristics of the Angelfish include their beauty,
inquisitive nature, and tendency to be found in all levels

7. My description pt.3
The history of Great Barrier Reef is limited to what we
humans know after we inhabited the continent. But the
process of coral building, where a new coral reef would
erect on a dead one has been going on a million years,
which lead to the structure of Great Barrier Reef.
The Great Barrier Reef is an extremely ancient, nature’s
creation ranging millions and millions years back. It consists
of thousands of species of animal life both above and below
the sea.
