Great Barrier Reef


I would like to introduce history of Great Barrier Reef.
Great Barrier Reef was registered on UNESCO’s World Heritage list in1981.
The reason why it was registered on that is the world’s biggest coral reef. The world’s biggest coral reef has been formed slowly for 1800 years. The point registration on world heritage is not just this. There are many creatures. There are 1500 kinds of fish, 4000 kinds of seashells and 240 kinds of birds. In other words the natural environment is left untouched. Great Barrier Reef is famous at a burst after registration on world heritage. Recently the scene of Finding Nemo was on Great Barrier Reef. So it is known more than before. But recently global warming is serious problem. How to protect Great Barrier Reef in future is very important.
