Intro: The Great Barrier Reef is in Queensland. It is the largest coral reef but also the largest living structure. How is it formed is the interesting part. It was formed by the rise and fall of the Ice Age during its final years. It is seen clearly from space.
Amazing, huh!- Michael

Here's a documentary about the Great Barrier Reef. This will show you lots about the Great Barrier Reef. -Emma

Now the questions.
When we say the questions we will answer them immediately.
 First question: Are there any significant natural, built or heritage features?
Actually, the whole Great Barrier Reef ITSELF is all natural because it wasn't man made. If you read the intro you would understand.

It Is 1 of the 7 NATURAL WONDERS.

Second question: How has the environment changed over the years?
We've collected information and it said some people are dumping waste and animals and people are suffering from the toxins. But people are trying to help clean it up.


Third question: Are there any mountains, rivers or landmark near it? 

The Great Barrier Reef runs for 2000 km so it has many rivers. But the best known river is the Endeavor River .

Okay guys thats the end of the the blog. The Great Barrier Reef is really fascinating and glorious. It is some thing I'd like to visit one time.
