Ted talks video response

        Imagine all the trees in a state or country disappeared people would be in an outrage. This is happening right now you just can't see it. Reefs all over the world are vanishing because of over fishing and other thing.

        I here to tell you about one man who changed that in the phoenix islands. His name is Greg Stone he is a marine biologist. He has worked all over the world and been all the way down to 16,000 feet below sea level. He has been going to the phoenix islands for over 10 years. His first year there he came up with a radical idea "Reverse Fishing Licenses." The idea behind these are to give money to the country in question for not letting people fish in their waters. Since then Greg has proven that any reef can survive if it is not over fished.

       My personal views on this video or that Greg is doing an amazing job with this reverse fishing license. I believe that his finding and how he raises peoples' awareness are going to save the coral reefs and our fish populations of the world. Even if it is only one island at a time he will help reverse the effects of what has happened so far.
