Coral reefs are home to one quarter of marine life. To many people living on islands, they provide a natural protection against storms as well as a fundamental source of food. We are all connected to the ocean because it provides us more oxygen than trees and forests.

However, due to global warming, pollution and other human activities, coral reefs are dying all over the world. According to scientists, they’ll be all gone within just a few decades. Some even say that there won’t be any corals left by 2050. We have to act while we still can !

On a tiny island lost in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, there’s a group of young and passionate people that are trying to fight this war. They are called the Coral Gardeners.

When corals break and then lay on the ocean floor, they are attacked by bacteries living in the sand and they die soon afterwards. The coral gardeners pick these broken pieces of corals before they die. They, then, leave them on resting tables for a few weeks until they are strong enough to be planted back in the reef. Once done, modern day pirates like @tehaps pick them up and plant them back to restore the reef. Then, they slowly start growing again and give hope for the future of our oceans !

If you want to fight this war with us, share this video and go to https://www.coralgardeners.org/ to adopt your own coral !
