1.What is the cause of the mass death of corals in Nha Trang?
The reason for the catastrophic coral death in Nha Trang could
be natural disasters. The types of natural disasters cause the
death of corals can be mentioned as stroms and global warming.
Storms blew away many coral reefs near the coast, which piled up several meters high.
Global warming increases ocean temperatures, causing the
phenomenon of coral bleaching.
But not for that people could blame all for nature disasters.
The mass death of corals in Nha Trang is also a part of human
contribution. Although humans do not have as severe an
impact on corals as natural causes, it does increase human
subjectivity. There are many human activities that harm on
corals such as illegal fishing exploitation, the unconsciousness
of sea tourists and unlawful marine works.
Many fishing boats throw their nets in conversation area,
cracking and destroying corals.
Some fisherman catch fish with cyanide, a cyanide pill is
crushed into a bottle filled with seawater. This dissolved
cyanide solution is then sprayed directly onto the reefs where
the fish are hiding to anesthetize them and make them easier
to catch. However, they were unaware that when exposed to
chemicals, coral polyp shells die in large numbers.
The tours that carry visitors to the island are not tightly
regulated, and visitors freely dive, trample, and break reefs.
Tourist waste dropped in the sea affects the photosynthesis of corals.
Coastal construction that is not in accordance with regulations.
Coral reefs have disappeared as a result of a number of
projects that are encroaching on and filling the sea.
2.Who take respossibility for the issue.
The state must take the lead in conservation, then take care of
people's livelihood, because when they are not guaranteed,
they will definitely go to the sea to exploit and the
consequences will continue.
3.Precautions the mass death of corals in Nha Trang?
We need to change conservation policy
As a protected area, it should not be soft on
illegal fishing activities in the area and focus
more resources on protection.
At the same time, we must promote
propaganda to protect the marine resources
for people, should not catch seafood by
eliminating electric fish, trawl nets, using cyanide to catch.
Thailand is ready to close Maya Bay for nearly
3 years to protect and restore corals and
marine ecosystems. They sacrifice short-term
economic benefits to protect long-term ones.
Regenerative recovery will not equal
protecting it. Because if people keep re-
creating without protecting it, it certainly
won't be sustainable, but the reality in Hon Mun is already an example.
4.Consequences of mass coral death?
Many coral deaths will lead to an imbalance in
the ocean ecosystem. Mass death of corals will
reduce the amount of fishery because coral is
the habitat of many species of organisms, if
they lose their habitat, they will find another
place to live. Certainly, without coral, trillions
of marine life would be affected, and millions
of people would no longer have seafood to
enjoy. The seafood and coastal tourism
industries would certainly be severely damaged. .
