And meanwhile, Kevin is running around in his tin foil hat screaming
the
sky is falling.

I assume you have information indicating that the science behind this
is
all wrong. Coral are not being affected as described. Your information
sounds interesting. Got links?
No, coral reefs have been dying, some from predators because man has
eaten
or collected the king conch which is a predator of the starfish which
eats
the coral and some from climate, particularly near the equator. Coral is
very fragile and lives in a very small temperature range - depth. As
temps
increase it will move north of the equator provided there is a shallow
enough location for it to flourish.

The major problem at this time, especially in the great barrier reefs is
the
Starfish.

Global climate change is a natural occurring sequence of warming and
cooling. Species die, other survive and new ones develop. It is nothing
to
get excited about..........and it certainly is not "Bush's fault"

Kevin is indeed acting as "chicken Little"


We're still going to need to see your data, imbecile. Prove that we are
having no measurable effect which can be lessened through behavioral
changes.


Prove that God doesn't exist. How would one prove a negative like that?


Prove that God DOES exist. That's a positive, so should be quite
plausible.
