Who would you rather have in your corner – FEMA or MENSA?

With the height of hurricane season approaching, and the Katrina anniversary monopolizing the media, it’s fair to say America’s got hurricane on the brain. While coastal residents and (let’s hope) the government prepare for this year’s storms, so, too do marine creatures.

Scientists and volunteers near Conch Reef rounded up about 500 long-spined sea urchins (critical to the health of coral reefs) in a shallow rubble zone and moved them to deeper water on the coral reef where they’ll be safer.

Take note, Mr. President. Preventative action before hurricanes = good. Still in the “beginning” stages of recovery a year after the fact = bad.
