2、rise in average water temperatures due to climate change has resulted in more frequent and long-time coral bleaching (珊瑚白化)” events that damage their health, causing fish and other sea species to abandon them.In order to restore this delicate ecosystem, scientists from the UK and Australia conducted
3、 a study that involved using loudspeakers underwater near damaged coral reefs to make them sound healthy and attract fish, potentially kick-starting the natural recovery process of coral reefs and their dependent life forms.

48、rtificial waste kills countless ocean lives every year.There are two main reasons for these problems. First of all, the discharge of untreated industrial waste water from coastal industries is the main cause of serious pollution of coastal marine water quality. Second, overfishing in the fishing industry destroys the ocean life chain. Therefore, I think the government should strengthen the supervision of the coastal enterprises and set up the closed season to ensure the fish breeding.Yours,Li Hua
