  1. There needs to be more people like Desoto and Rodriguez. It should not be okay to destroy the baeches and reefs. Bulldozers are destroying the beachs and reefs, dredging the beaches. It should not be allowed to harm the beaches. Not only does bulldozing the beach affect the sand and water it effects the fishes and water animals living in the water and on the reefs. Destroying the reefs leaves the fishes, turtles, etc no where to live. Many sea creatures have the possibility of death due to destroying the reefs. I believe that drenching the beach should be illegal. Reefs are a home to sea creatures like our homes are to us. Nobody would like to have their home destroyed.

  2. This is a terrible thing that is happening in Costa Rica. The world needs to have more people to care about the oceans like these two people do. Destroying reefs and lifes of the sea creatures is not good. Drenching the beachs and destroying the beaches reefs should not eb allowed. Bulldozers are destroying not only the beaches sand and water it is making the water dirty and making it not good for the creatures that live in it. Reefs are homes to the sea creatures and no human would like something destroying their home and taking their resourses for food and habitats away from them.
