Project: Coral Reefs in Danger

2. Analyze the Options List the arguments on each side of the issue. Note the pros and cons. How well would each position protect the reefs? Who might be harmed or inconvenienced?
3. Find a Solution Write a newspaper editorial stating your position on whether diving should be allowed near coral reefs. State your position and reasons clearly.
1. Title
