If we don't reign in the rhetoric, it could be. Certainly, reasonable regulations on pollution, overfishing, aquarium collection, anchorage, etc., are not out of line.
But alarmist screechings about "vanishing coral reefs" ought to be considered in this context:
Sessile coelenterates (corals) have survived ice ages, changing sea levels, and the Cretaceous extinction.
