Trying To Find A Balance. 

                   Some of the ways that government officials attempt to create a balance between people and the ecosystem is limiting the number of people who travel to the Great Barrier Reef. The limit on visitors per year can guarantee a less harsher impact on both the park and reef. Another thing that the government and other organizations can try is providing classes for tourist or requiring them to know the basics of how to interact in the environment and what precautions to take to maintain its natural balance. Also if there were certain policies made regarding certain pesticides and herbicides used on farms near and plants in the Great Barrier Reef there could possible be less damage. (1)

"Save The Reef" movement against farmers use of pesticides.

According to Alison Rourke, the Great Barrier Reef is put under this constant danger by farmers. They have found that the farmers are continuously putting the Reef's natural habitat through a "disaster". The WWF, or World Wide Fund for Nature are the group most involved in this movement to stop the exposure of pesticides.
