Who is Genetically Engineering Corals for Color?

For the record I never said that I feel modification to coral should be done, that’s a whole other ethical question!
 
I'm 100% with Mr Randy and I don't like to think that man is putting effort and money just for changing coral colors.
Also I believe the only way to save coral reefs it's taking better care of our planet, which it's not the way things are going... sorry...

The sad part is the damage has been done and the results will slowly play out over the next hundred+ years. Sure we can change our behavior and mitigate some of the future damage. It's like a big ship, it can't change course quickly. The earth will continue to warm and most of that heat will continue to be absorbed by the oceans.

By why not? Corals are screwed without our intervention. Setting back and saying let nature take it course is absurd when we are the ones influencing their environment.

I get that argument when discussing not interfering with wild animals eating each other, but this isn't a predator-prey relationship.

With that logic why even have an endangered species list.
