Summarize the points about Artificial reefs in the lecture, being sure to explain how they cast doubt on the specific theories mentioned in the reading passage.
In the lecture, the professor questions the reading passage's assertion that there are three major benefits of constructing artificial reefs. The professor puts forth the idea that artificial reefs can actually cause more problems than benefits.
Firstly, the reading passage mentions that fish population will increase because artificial reefs provide more places for fish gather and grow. However, this contradicts the professor’s idea that fish population does not necessarily increase when people catch more fish in the area of artificial reefs. He explains that artificial reefs attract fish from distant areas to move near, so the fish which live else where get caught. Since people catch too many fish, the overall fish population cannot maintain and decease.
Secondly, the reading passage states that artificial reefs increase the competitiveness of small-scale fishers, because the location is secret only to them. Instead, the professor rebuts this by saying that secret artificial reefs will cause several safety problems. He says that when other fishers use large nets in those unknown locations, the nets will be destroyed. In some shallow areas, boats might crash into secret reefs. It is only safe when the artificial reef is known to the public. However, if this happens, small-scale fishers will have no competitive advantage.
Lastly, the reading passage claims that artificial reefs are beneficial for recycling the materials that are difficult to dispose. But the professor says that even though the harmful materials are cleaned, artificial reefs will still cause environmental damage. For example, the Osborne reefs are used car tires and the tires are boned together. But when the storm came, those tires got loose and crushed into the surrounding seafloor, which led to lots of environmental damage.
