Protect our coral reefs!
Published by Michelle on Jun 25, 2008
Target: The U.S. government
Region: United States of America
Background (Preamble):
Please sign this. This petition is asking for greater federal protection, by law, of coral reefs.
Coral reefs are a vital part of the marine ecosystem and due to boats, global warming, pollution, and other causes, coral reefs are starting to die off. There is only one coral reef in all of America! I am lucky enough to observe this ecosystem [and not do damage to it] and i want my children and my grandchildren to be able to do the same instead of looking in books and at movies of what used to be a beautiful thing.
Also, if the coral reef is harmed then it hurts things as small as a clown fish to things as large as a blue whale. I hope you will sign this petition asking for greater coral reef protection.
I may only be 13 years old but it doesn't matter. I am a citizen who is passionate about this subject and this is what is right.
