Imagine you were dying, your death imminent, close at hand. You're weak and really, really in pain. But no one around you notices. You're trapped in a busy void of rushing people who go on doing whatever they like doing without caring for you. Everybody's eyes are averting you like you don't even exist. How would you feel?

Exactly how reefs all over the world must feel. Humans are so busy and ignorant of their dying that it must feel like a betrayal to them.

Reefs are wonderful, unexplored ocean treasures. And they are dying even as you read these words and think you should just get out of here. Can't you feel their pain now?

Just because they're not something you notice daily, doesn't mean they're not there, in existence. They are. But will they be in another few years?

In Australia, when they had a drought that lasted 7 years, children born during that seven years were so afraid when suddenly water started falling from the sky.

Do you want almost the same thing to happen to future generations? Your children, imagine, your own children, may never get to see the wonder and all the magnificence of reefs today. And unlike the rain, the reefs won't fall from the sky. They're never going to come back.

We'd like to thank these very important people, software and websites:

Worldproutassembly.org for the picture of coral reefs.
Magnetictimes.com for the picture of bleached coral reefs.
Flickr.com for the wonderful image of colourful coral reefs.
