[Coral-List] NOAA plan to save coral reefs

Phil:

Great post. It triggered a lot of thought as I sit here stuffed with turkey
and surrounded by family. I sense that the answer to the problem we face is
"all of the above". The goal is how to get beyond the noise of "my problem
(or solution) is more important than yours", or "hey - it's local (or
global) stupid?" and actually DO something that moves us closer to a
desired solution. I am encouraged to see that we have largely moved beyond
the traditional arguments that weigh the relative effects of
overconsumption in the first world and overpopulation in the third.
However, they have been too often replaced by posts that argue over the
primacy of global versus local problems and solutions. If anyone doubts the
pervasiveness of these arguments, they need only go back through listserve
posts.

Steve's reference to Caroline's paper on Ka ̄ne‘ohe Bay reminded me of our
(Caroline's and mine) simultaneous arrival at West Indies Lab in 1977. Our
linked interests built a strong mutual respect for the interconnection of
things physical and biological that has remained constant over the years.
After she went to work for the "USBS", we collaborated on a number of
projects that focused on the role of sedimentation (and watershed
management) in the well-being of coral reefs in the USVI. Reefs are the
ideal place to appreciate the linkages between physical and biological
principles.... and protecting them requires that we understand that
interdependence to "do something" EFFECTIVE.

While the main objectives may be policy-directed, building on and growing
our basic scientific understanding of "how reefs works" should still be a
primary goal as we design the next generation of researchers and managers.
As scientists, we can get too excited with new "discoveries" that do not
have an immediate application. However, as managers we can also focus on
strategies that too often prioritize perceived outcomes over understanding
and adhering to fundamental natural laws. The solutions require both
"applied" and "basic" science.

So, let's plant more trees. Better yet, let's encourage programs that have
a kid plant a tree. If they think of  "that tree" as "their tree", they are
more likely to appreciate its value and, from there, the importance of
trees and forests in general. Let's support NGOs that involve local folks
so they don't see management as something that first-world scientists and
managers come in and do - they will see "that reef" is "their reef" and be
more likely to think about the importance of reefs in general - and
appreciate how difficult it is to implement meaningful conservation
strategies. . Let's stop arguing over what is the biggest problem and the
best solution and, back to Phil's point, start DOING...... something.

To not leave my reputation as the designated curmudgeon diminished in any
way, I'll end with a response to your suggestion that "reefs along the US
coastline will not have a chance until we attack the more fundamental
issues with 2-5x the ferocity of the WW2 effort". The only war that has
been fought by the present administration with asnythiong approaching that
level of intensity is the "war on science". To quote the late Bob Dill,
"good science is funded science". In the US, our commander in chief has
gutted the funding (NSF) and administrative i(EPA) infrastructure that
allows us to "do something about it". The latest NATO summit suggests that
this is not limited to American government. Where is the scientific and
intellectual equivalent to John F. Kennedy's pronouncement that "we will
put a man on the moon by the end of the decade"? Can we do no better than,
"Happy New Year to all, including to my many enemies and those who have
fought me and lost so badly they just do not know what to do. Love"

Best for the new year,

Denny
