Put the sentences in the correct order:
- Even with these measures in place, the underlying dilemma persists: the industry that keeps reefs economically valuable is also the one most capable of destroying them.
- To address this, some governments have introduced visitor caps, reef taxes, and mandatory briefings that teach tourists how to minimize their physical contact with fragile coral structures.
- Yet the very activity that sustains these communities can also damage the reefs themselves, as careless fin kicks, anchor drops, and sunscreen chemicals accelerate coral bleaching and erosion.
- In many coastal regions, this steady stream of visitors has become the backbone of local economies, supporting boat operators, dive schools, and small guesthouses that would otherwise struggle to survive.
- Coral reefs draw millions of snorkelers and divers each year, their vivid colors and abundant marine life making them among the most photographed underwater landscapes on Earth.
