1) The typhoon killed of parts of the reef.

2)Typhoons are caused by global warming.

3) Therefore, mankind has killed the reef.

4) If a witch floats, burn the duck!



Reefs are made of coral, the rock part opf it is only the non-living
deposits of the coral animal, a polyp. Of the coral that produced
the reef dies, the reef itslef dies, stops building and stops
functioning, which destroys a whole habitat....and you're a sailor
with so little respect for where you sail?
