The ICRI (International Coral Reef Initiative) International Year of the Reef 2008 is a worldwide campaign to raise awareness about the value and importance of coral reefs and threats to their sustainability, and to motivate people to take action to protect them. All individuals, corporations, schools, governments, and organizations are welcome and actively encouraged to participate in IYOR 2008.
This year Midland Reefs, along with Tim Hayes, is working to promote awareness of IYOR 2008 to the aquarium hobby and industry. Look out for a series of articles in PFK written by Tim, where the emphasis is on The Responsible Reefkeeper, looking at the various ways the hobby and the reefs interact with each other.
