Todd: So, Rebecca, in Australia you have the Great Barrier Reef. Now have you been to the Great Barrier Reef?


Rebecca: Yes, I have once, probably about two years ago. There's the main part of the Great Barrier Reef and then there's a little island, and we went to the island because I don't like scuba 1 diving, so I didn't go to the main part.


Todd: So, you don't like scuba diving. Why?


Rebecca: I think it's the unknown, under the water, and just being confined and having this breathing aparatus on you.


Todd: Right. Well, you know what, I can relate because I was certified 2 to be a diver because all my friends were divers 3 and I didn't enjoy it that much either.


Rebecca: Yeah. Like, it looks great underwater when you see it on TV and it would be awesome 4 to see it, but yeah, I just can't get past the going underwater and not being able breathe properly.


Todd: Right. Right. Actually, I think for me was I went with my friends and they were so excited about it and then when you would go under water, you're in pairs. You have a buddy 5 and it seemed like you were kind of in line in an amusement park or something, you know?


Rebecca: Really?


Todd: Yeah, like everybody kind of has to go around and you look around and you see all these other divers and... but I was the only person that felt this way. Everybody else loves diving and the photography so... But actually, is it true the Barrier Reef is being damaged? It's actually not as beautiful as used to be?


Rebecca: Yeah. It's... The name of it is coral bleaching 6, and the coral is actually turning white, now rather than having the colors it has, so that's been happening for a few years I think and it's getting worse and worse.


Todd: Oh, so basically the coral is losing it's beautiful color?


Rebecca: Yeah, yeah, basically, just dies and can't be brought back.


Todd: Well, what about, like you know, the marine 7 life, like you know fish and stuff like that? Is that still abundant?


Rebecca: I assume that would probably go down as well once the coral starts to die off because that is the food source and their housing for the fish so with the loss of the Great Barrier Reef you also lose all the beautiful fish and marine life down there too.


Todd: That's too bad.
