1 Which natural heritage site is introduced?
2 What kind of threat is it facing?

The reef is mainly threatened by human activities. Industry along the coast pollutes its waters; illegal fishing is reducing the number of fish; climate change caused by human activities leads to rising temperatures, which bleach the coral. Climate change also makes the water more acidic, causing coral grow more slowly.
