Illegal Logging Damage to the Coral Reef

Friday, October 17, 2008

As a result of illegal logging a lot of large floods which then flows to the sea to bring pieces of mud and logs and high sendimentasi rise in the sea that damage to coral reefs. This condition is quite alarming, because it has often occurred due to the flood of illegal logging action.

And if this is not resolved, then any efforts to conserve coral reefs will be useless if sendimentasi mud in the sea continues to grow due to flooding in the mainland.
Similarly, efforts to conserve coral reefs by cultivating the back area of coral reefs have been destroyed, come to the attention of a number of NGOs both local and national. Damage to coral reefs menimbukan large losses on both the environment and the economy, including tourism.Losses environmental damage occurred because the coral reef ecosystem will cause a sea change toward the negative and disruptive process naturally in the sea.

He rate, the economic losses due to damage to coral reefs caused the decrease in the number of fishermen catch fish because the fish migrate to other areas that are still karangnya and natural.
Coral reefs, according to him, can not be released from the fish population and development, the area where spawning and provide food for fish. Then, from the tourism, destruction of coral reef make the area of the sea and the beach is no longer attractive, especially for dive tourism. Maritime tourism, among other areas of coral reefs and intact natural that, if still will make foreigns won't interesting

Based On IPCC Global Warming

In accordance with what is happening now, according to research Intergovermental Panel and Climate Change (IPCC), an international institution of more than 100 countries that initiated the United Nations, in the year 2005 has been an increase in world temperatures around 0.6 to 0.7 degrees, while in Asia a higher, namely 10 degrees. This has an impact on Gleser (Ice Mountain) in the Himalayas and the South Pole and the decreasing availability of water in the tropical regions as much as 20% to 30%. Melelehnya Gleser in the Himalayas and the South Pole itself a direct impact on improving the surface sea water as high as 4-6 meters. If this continues then left in the year 2012 the sea water will rise again about 7 meters. With the automatic life in the ecosystem and coastal and island areas will be endangered

As reported in Science Magazine a sample of 928 peer-reviewed papers searched under the term ‘’global climated change'’ were looked at, and a total of 0 rejected consensus position. It’s time for us to move past the fringe right and paid skeptics and recognize scientists who have dedicated their lives to this do have a fundamental understanding, and are in agreement. It’s time to take the next step, and begin looking for viable solutions.
