the reef is under threat

Coal Port on the Great Barrier Reef?

Sure! Why not?! Anything that's good for the economy, right?

I couldn't believe the ad I saw on tv a few nights ago from Santos about Coal Seam Gas.

The whole ad was about how safe, clean, etc it is. Blatant propaganda.

I was under the impression that the great barrier reef has already been dying at an alarming speed for several years.

Another nail in the coffin :(

Yea pretty much. The coral has supposedly halved over the last 27 years.

Although put it this way -- it will be great for both the local economy and the tourism industry. Instead of tourists marveling at a natural wonder, they can

be awe-struck by what fucking corporate sell-out whores we are. There's nothing wrong with going for the 'freak show' dollar in tourism, right?

Natural beauty will become a dying comodity.. ''Eco-tourism: pay millions to see the last breath of the earth we have already killed''
