What is a counter claim to the argument of the pollution and endangerment of the great barrier reef?

English

Advocard [28]3 years ago

Proponents for the huge expansion of coal ports along the coast of Queensland, including at Abbot Point, have asserted that dredging and dumping of dredge spoil at sea won’t harm the Great Barrier Reef. But this runs counter to the growing weight of scientific evidence.

The latest healthcheck of the Great Barrier Reef confirmed that much of the Reef is in a bad state, and getting worse. Leaving aside the challenges of global warming and ocean acidification linked to the extraction and burning of fossil fuels, key issues for the expansion of coal ports in Queensland are the amount of dredging and the dispersal of sediment beyond dredging and disposal sites.


Hope this helps.

Arada [10]
<span>As he looks back at the events narrated in "Shooting an Elephant," Orwell admits that he shot the elephant because he did not want to appear foolish or weak in front of the crowd. Orwell realized that he had been compelled to shoot the elephant because of his position as a colonial military officer. With a Burmese audience watching, he felt obligated to shoot the elephant and uphold his place in the colonial system, even though he did not particularly care to shoot the elephant.</span>
