The Greenies worry about 4 bombs which might cover
a few feet of coral, if it hits coral and not sand yet no
mention of nutrients, fertilizer and silt that comes down
rivers and blankets the whole reef !!!
To be fair, I think that if this story was about nutrients and fertilizers spilling into the sea and contaminating the reef then I think the "greenies' probably would have something to say about it.

The only reason they're now banging on about bombs being dropped on the reef is because that's pretty much what happened in this particular case....
