CCMI’s vision is a world with vibrant oceans and healthy coral reefs.We will make this vision a reality by undertaking cutting edge, impactful research and transforming this research into conservation and education initiatives to bridge the gap between knowledge and action.
CCMI was founded in 1998 to protect coral reefs through research, education and conservation. At the groundbreaking for the Little Cayman Research Centre (LCRC) in 2005, HRH The Prince Edward, Earl of Wessex, and CCMI Royal Patron, dedicated the site “to sustain biodiversity so that the children of the world may forever discover the treasures of the sea.” The reefs around Little Cayman, championed by CCMI to be recognised as a Mission Blue Hope Spot in 2020, truly are treasures of the sea and offer insight for coral reefs globally. The LCRC has grown in to a world-class research and education facility. Learn more about our innovative work, including Reefs Go Live, and the Reef Ecology and Evolution Lab.

World Ocean Day Reefs Go Live 2024: Corals in a Changing Climate
REEFS GO LIVE 2024 EPISODE 4: Corals in a Changing Climate: A Dive into the Future of Coral Reefs
Date: Friday, 7 June
Time: 10am (UTC -5h)
As we look around us, the impacts of climate change are ever-present and increasing in severity, with 2023 being the hottest year on record. This broadcast takes a deep dive with CCMI’s researchers into how climate change affects our oceans and coral reefs, the impacts of last year’s increased water temperatures on Little Cayman’s reefs, how CCMI is working towards helping corals to survive these pressures, and how you can help too.
Research projects contributing to the information shared in this episode include the coral bleaching monitoring funded by CCMI's Healthy Reefs sponsors (Foster's, Supermarkets, Cayman Islands Department of Tourism, and Knighthead Annuity) and the Blue Carbon Offset and Biodiversity Programme, which is made possible by Butterfield. The in-person event at the Camana Bay Cinema is supported by Dart.
To participate in the interactive portion of Reefs Go Live, with live question and answer, polls, and engagement with CCMI’s team in Little Cayman, register and join us here: donate.reefresearch.org/rgl2024

Great story, G^3! Nice video of the fish, and a good intro to the next episodes. Keep up the good work - cheers!
What a great project to be a part of. Lucky for you to see this underwater wonderland while it was still healthy and vibrant. Thanks for this documentary, it was beautifully done and had a powerful message for anyone willing to listen.
Long Live the CCMI Congratulations on 25 Years of Research and Reefsearch
This looks so cool! Infact ive already submitted an application to this years half-term break one 😁I really hope I get accepted!!

I once met bill at a charity event and he was the most down to earth funny approachable guy you could ever meet. He wouldn’t like to be called a legend but that is exactly what he is. A very nice guy. Hope the bass did well. Keep on rocking x
Best Bass guitarist of all times! A real English gentleman.
Gets a free bass and signs it. He's really just donating some ink from his pen, right?
He is a great bass guitarist , underrated! Too bad Keith likes bass too! He ain’t too bad either!
Was he the Bass player for Justin Beaver . 🧛♀️
Here is the rest of the story ... ua-cam.com/video/_OMm88XQZoQ/v-deo.html
Great to see you Alejandro, greetings from Honduras.
How to apply for internship program
We Love you, Bill.
I didn't expect to see myself on UA-cam 😂😂
Miss you Bill, stone FOREVER.
Bill looks fantastic
What an obscure charity to support while human beings are starving and suffering all over the world. I guess wealthy retirees want to keep their favorite scuba and snorkling spots clean. How about taking up a collection for all of Brian Jones' illegitimate children? I'm sure they could use the help!
Beware of demons disguise themselves as human politicians
Beware of false witnesses
Great job one again!
man i love this guy ! hes a very good bass player ! he plays only the good notes ! great lines !
This needs more views
I wish I could buy it

Love these live streams! Can you enable transcripts on the video? Thanks
Bills the man Thanks bill
Can anyone tell me what bass brand/model that is?🤔🤷🏾♂️ Also a great cause🌊🐢🐠🐟🐚
The Bass Centre Wyman Bass
@@chezruss Thanks 😁👍🏾
Bill Wyman also has a custom made tear drop Bass Guitar, I believe it was a Vox. Nice looking one at that.
what kind of paint did u use? i tried this and the paint just washed off the rock.
Who will be cleaning up these disposable masks that are going into the sea now on a daily basis?
It's funny how some crises are placed on the back burner for others.
@@jkllad Dying sea creatures is a bigger problem that a fake virus.
@@fooman65 This is true, but they pair well with chardonnay. ;-)
Great presentation. Very informative and inspiring for us to really take steps to protect, preserve and propagate Corals in Cayman. I’m more convinced than ever that protecting and planting coral and trees are two of the most important ecological actions we can take. Thanks for this amazing study and all of your work!
i love learning
What a man, what a life - the great Bill Wyman...
um
why would someone put that dislike!?
You are a citizen of the world 🌎 🌍 world Mr. Bill Wyman.. thank you 🙏🏼 ❤️
Really great video. Keep up the good work !
Nice job, CCMI!
As a "sports diver", I don't have much experience however this brought tears because I appreciate & love all the diversity that is below the surface...brought anger too. Just today Trump opened up Northeast Canyons and Seamounts Marine National Monument, the only Atlantic Marine Reserve, to commercial fishing...idiot. this undermines all that we've been working towards for years. Look, it took decades for Little Cayman to be where it is today. Intense management & protections are saving The Little Caymens. Congrats to Carrie for persevering. I knew her dad, Eddie.
its was amazing!

good job
Thank for sharing this video with us!!!
This is so helpful thank u so much
