The reef is a giant ring around several islands that rely on the reef for support. The reef makes up about 187 different kinds of coral. Maldives is located around salt water, but rain is caught by the way it's shaped and there's an abundance of freshwater there, too.]]> 2017-01-17 17:59:05 UTC https://padlet.com/delafieldadam/esldaxnfc28b/wish/147625397 delafieldadam https://padlet.com/delafieldadam/esldaxnfc28b/wish/147632221 The freshwater from the rain is often used as drinking or bathing water for the residents that live there. Many people go there as tourists to see the reef and stay at the wooden houses right above the water. Fish are the main things that people eat there since there's no a lot of room for cattle. They use the low land level to grow rice.]]> 2017-01-17 18:17:57 UTC https://padlet.com/delafieldadam/esldaxnfc28b/wish/147632221 delafieldadam https://padlet.com/delafieldadam/esldaxnfc28b/wish/147898819 rare fish have been spotted in the Maldives!

The Maldives are close to Antarctica, so global warming directly affects the Maldives. The glacier water is still cold, so the the melted water bleaches the coral reef. The bleaching is happening at a rapid pace. With humans being there, crime also appears. Radical terrorists are threatening the life of humans, and the range of fire could also lash on to the fish and wildlife of the Maldives]]> 2017-01-18 18:37:28 UTC https://padlet.com/delafieldadam/esldaxnfc28b/wish/147910545 delafieldadam https://padlet.com/delafieldadam/esldaxnfc28b/wish/148173917 We individually can't do much about terrorism. However, everyone can do something about global warming to stop the bleaching from happening. We can conserve energy by using less fossil fuels and make sure not to use plastic bags. Volunteers that live close to there try to make sure that there's no trash in the water or on the beaches.]]> 2017-01-19 17:46:59 UTC https://padlet.com/delafieldadam/esldaxnfc28b/wish/148173917 delafieldadam https://padlet.com/delafieldadam/esldaxnfc28b/wish/148175810 oh no!]]> 2017-01-19 17:52:07 UTC https://padlet.com/delafieldadam/esldaxnfc28b/wish/148175810 delafieldadam https://padlet.com/delafieldadam/esldaxnfc28b/wish/148178499 this could affect their economy greatly.]]> 2017-01-19 17:58:46 UTC https://padlet.com/delafieldadam/esldaxnfc28b/wish/148178499 delafieldadam https://padlet.com/delafieldadam/esldaxnfc28b/wish/148179287 Maldives is highly involved in the war in Syria]]> 2017-01-19 18:00:39 UTC https://padlet.com/delafieldadam/esldaxnfc28b/wish/148179287 delafieldadam https://padlet.com/delafieldadam/esldaxnfc28b/wish/148180163 Houses are built like this due to low elevation slightly below sea level!]]> 2017-01-19 18:02:56 UTC https://padlet.com/delafieldadam/esldaxnfc28b/wish/148180163 delafieldadam https://padlet.com/delafieldadam/esldaxnfc28b/wish/148181840 Tourists often go shark diving in the Maldives!]]> 2017-01-19 18:07:15 UTC https://padlet.com/delafieldadam/esldaxnfc28b/wish/148181840 delafieldadam https://padlet.com/delafieldadam/esldaxnfc28b/wish/148185548 what it's like diving in the Maldives]]> 2017-01-19 18:17:49 UTC https://padlet.com/delafieldadam/esldaxnfc28b/wish/148185548 delafieldadam https://padlet.com/delafieldadam/esldaxnfc28b/wish/148185992 what it's like living in the Maldives]]> 2017-01-19 18:19:24 UTC https://padlet.com/delafieldadam/esldaxnfc28b/wish/148185992
