Status Quo

To protect coral reefs, there is a International Environmental Law. 
It requires the protection, restoration, and sustainable use of the corals and associated environments. 

But enforcement actions against parties damaging corals are rare. 

The US has even allowed a world trade system to import corals. 

What does it say about us as a species, if we continue the destructive trade of one of our world's richest and sensitive ecosystems?
