Coral restoration projects

Coral restoration projects aim to help damaged or dying coral reefs recover by actively planting healthy corals or coral larvae onto the ocean floor. These efforts often involve cultivating corals in nurseries, where they grow until strong enough to be transplanted back into natural reefs. The goal is to enhance biodiversity, protect marine life, and support coastal communities that depend on healthy reefs. Restoration addresses threats like pollution, climate change, and overfishing, working to restore the resilience and function of these vital underwater ecosystems.
