Dr. Suzuki Says, "Protect Coral Reefs - Don't Drive an SUV"

"The connection may seem tenuous after all, how could driving an SUV have anything to do with protecting coral reefs? But it does. SUVs are big-time gas guzzlers, adding substantially to the problem of global warming, and it's killing our coral. According to a recent report in the journal Science, 'The link between increased greenhouse gases, climate change, and regional-scale bleaching of corals, considered dubious by many reef researchers only 10 to 20 years ago, is now incontrovertible.'" - excerpt from an article by Dr. David Suzuki at http://www.enn.com/news/2003-08-28/s_7851.asp
