Help Conserve The Great Barrier Reef

1.  A coral larvae that settles and grows into an upside down shaped jellyfish.  Polyps grow and multiply which form a colony(a.k.a. coral).

2.  Climate change and difference in water temperature.

3.  When the sea stays warm for too long the zozenthelly leaves the coral.  The zozenthelly is the main source of food and when they leave the coral also loses its color.

4.  Due to climate change done by daily activities as in driving a car, pollution, and air pollution.

5.  Save energy by turning off lights that are not in use and turning off appliances not in use, avoid unnecessary car rides, and recycle everything!

1.  1,500 species of fish, 360 species of hard coral, 1/3 of the World's soft coral, 22 species of sea birds, and 32 species of shore birds.

2.  Climate change is responsible for warming our oceans.

3.  Increased flooding pollutes the Great Barrier Reef and the warming of the ocean causes the birds to move to cooler water leaving no food for the birds.

4. The additional ways to help reduce climate change would be too buy environmentally sustainable products, open windows instead of using the air conditioning, and drying clothes on the line instead of using a dryer.

1.  The benefits to this kind of media are they are very factual and they are fun to watch.  The drawbacks are they are not as appealing to adults and they did not go into as much detail.

2. Adults from Australia: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8f2j0mfn814
-This would be more beneficial to adults from Australia because the News is a very factual source and it also gets more in dept and would be easier for them to access.  This would also be more appealing to adults rather than cartoons.

Foreigners not from Australia: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SdDiHbG1tY
-This shows what could happen to the Great Barrier Reef.  The reasons why this would be more important to foreigners because these are things the Australians already know.  This would inform them about what will happen if these bad habits that are ruining the reef.

Tourists visiting the Great Barrier Reef:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-dqmL7dz8Q
-This shows the tourists all the facts about the reefs.  This also explains what is happening to where they will be visiting.  This could also make them more curious to ask more questions and help make more of an effort to help back at their home lands.  This also explains the facts about the reefs in great detail.
