Product details
Over the past few years and more recently in the
media many scientists and
journalists have pronounced the Great Barrier
Reef as either dead or dying. After 25 million years of
existence, the wondrous world heritage site has suffered a
continual state of degradation from coral bleaching, assaults
from the crown of thorn starfish and increases in carbon levels
due to the rising temperatures of global warming, causing the
water to become acidic and thus harmful to the life forms that
reside in the Great Barrier Reef.
As The Reef is my musical expression of
the frustration and sadness I feel upon hearing constant news of
the demise of the Great Barrier Reef, I hope to project a sense
of urgency on the situation the reef faces by telling the story
of what has been, what is, and what could be.Although the Great
Barrier Reef is large, it is extremely fragile and without
implementing drastic measures to save what remains, we will lose
one of the most spectacular wonders of our planet.
