What are the main environmental issues faced on our coast, and how will being part of the expedition benefit me and my community.

A beautiful coast born of nature, always roaring night and day, intertaining people in its own natural way is coming to a probleming were by people seem’s to be against it natural conservations. It does e not trespass against anyone; but the living souls draw themselves to it. This is the cause of the seaside needing improvement and rules.

This beautiful Southern Africa coast holds it’s own Gold and Silver. Not stolen from humans or underground but born from this nature with it. But because of men loosing their sense of humour, they have become poachers. Tossing their nets into the deep blue seas the store the silver and Golden fishes of the sea. What make matters worse is this fishes are captured before the reproductive stage, by this they decrease. Who knows what will the sea hold in the near future. How will the sea draw tourists with no colour except blue of the water. If that’s the case why don’t they stay home and watch the blue of the sky? The financial state decreases making jobs less and crime more. You see what we is how much we need nature to improve our financial state by money transferred from other country to this country.

South Africa has different beautiful wild animals, some Gamereserves are located close to the sea, and the animals don’t have perfect fencing preventing them from disturbing functions held at the coast. By tourists or just normal visitors being at the sea side to most people means having fun freely in natural water not hiding from wild animals. Why not ask companies to donate money for improvement of this such Problems or hold a fun day for raising money or maybe , we to lazy to think.

These country is created in different mavelous ways. Every place has its own special thing. It is a great disappointment to know that some parts o the coast are paid more attention to than others. Life savours exist in this country it is a pity that they only exist in some part of the coast not every were why don’t they decided them so they be sufficient for the coast. If don’t start to think and I mean think fast we are going to lose not only little creatures in the sea, but we could end up loosing even ourselves.

Thank God that the good part of men still exist. This is shown buy the expedition which is taking place at present. Hidden issues can now be looked at with a more advance eye. Issues which involves oil spilling which comes through ships which transport goods. It does destroys what I call the beautiful water world. If this issues can be taken care off then we would benefit a constructive relationship with other countries which do visit us, and they will learn that small creatures don’t only live for death. They also have a right to own and occupy their habitats.
