Video Description
We have deployed 2000 structures to patch up a reef in Indonesia and the results were immediate! 🪸 To support our work you can become a member here: https://mossy.earth To build this project from the ground up we needed the stability of the constant support that our members give us. Nothing we do is possible without you. We hope you will consider joining us in creating more coral reefs! 🙌 And if you are already a member you can pay for an extra structure (or more!) to be deployed here: https://www.mossy.earth/platform/fund-extra-campaigns/10 MOSSY EARTH MEMBERSHIP =============================== The rewilding membership that restores nature across a wide range of ecosystems. 🌲 Support a diversity of ecosystems 🐺 Rewild habitats to bring back biodiversity 🦫 Fund neglected species & ecosystems Learn more and become a member here: https://mossy.earth 📝 Field notes channel - https://www.youtube.com/@MossyEarth-FieldNotes ⏱️TIMESTAMPS⏱️ =============================== 0:00 Intro 1:00 Our project area 4:20 First deployment 9:08 Boat name 9:50 Zip ties! 12:10 Scaling up 🔎 ABOUT THIS PROJECT =============================== Coral reefs are known as “the rainforests of the sea”. These vibrantly complex ecosystems harbour the highest biodiversity of any ecosystem globally. An estimated 25% of all marine species depend on reefs. They are also crucial for millions of people, providing food, livelihoods, resources and coastal protection. Major threats, such as over-exploitation and climate change, are jeopardising the future of coral reefs. In the last few decades, sharp declines in reef cover have occurred worldwide. This is our first coral reef project to restore damaged reefs in the northern waters of Nusa Penida, Indonesia. Our long-term goal is to improve resilience by enhancing connectivity of fragmented reefs whilst protecting and preserving endangered coral species. Led by our local team of expert divers and marine biologists passionate about the preservation of this marine ecosystem, we work with local people to promote positive community involvement in coral reef restoration.
