About Coral Restoration Foundation™
Coral Restoration Foundation™ (CRF™) is the world’s largest non-profit marine conservation organization dedicated to actively restoring coral reefs. CRF™ was founded in response to the wide-spread loss of the dominant coral species on the Florida Reef Tract. Through large-scale cultivation, outplanting, and monitoring of genetically diverse corals, CRF™ works to support the reefs’ natural recovery processes. CRF™ engages and empowers others in their mission with dive programs, educational activities, scientific collaborations, and community outreach.
Proud and so thankful to everyone involved!! ❤️ Blessings to the Health, Beauty and Hope of the Coral Reefs!! 💖
I am from the Philippines and an advocate of coral reef restorations. We have just started doing conservation activities with the initiative of Japanese-Filipino diving shops in Mactan. It's just overwhelming to know that your foundation made these informative videos for us to be guided as we are still starting this movement. Likewise, we are also dedicated to restoring the coral reefs in the Philippines. 😊
I admire everything this Foundation strives for, and I long for the day that I get to assist them with their work 💕
This video was even more inspiring to help heal our lovely ocean 💙
God bless you ❤
some of my faith in humanity has returned
Look up about the scientists and care givers in Africa protecting the last 2 northern white rhinos from poachers and hunters. True heros.
@@MrChill-gw7sp Cool, I will check it out
What a beautifully works you're doing. My tears falls out. I love the wonderful world's of the oceans. Thanks for everything you're doings.
Bless you all guys!
This makes me want to cry. We need to act, please contribute to limit global warming and the destruction of this beautiful planet in any way you can
Has very little to do with global warming. Stony corals in the Keys are dying due to disease (pathogens introduced thru sewage pipes. )One of them broke in Biscayne Bay and took 1 yr to get it repaired. Sewage water is only 85% filtered(Federal mandate), the rest is raw. One of the viruses that cause white/black band disease is Serratia Marcescens. The disease has spread everywhere in the Keys except west of Key West. These corals can succumb to the same disease. It looks promising but there's a lot of nutrients and pathogens in the water. Nutrient rich water is only suitable for soft/filter feeder corals.
You people are AWESOME! Thank You for helping save Humanity!
Love it !!!
Hopefully you can teach me how the restore procedure..so we can restore the coral together around us. Regards from North Sumatera, Indonesia.
This video made me tear up. It makes me want to study Marine Biology instead HAHAHA
Same🥲
Except I already study marine biology
I want to help ….
I am with you, aside from coral restoration project in our city waters we expand the habitat for our fish .
Yeah wetlands
Love what you guys do 👌 👍 💖 😉 Love this male voice too
Love it
Precious work
good luck, legends
Did you know you can join divers who volunteer to help save coral reefs? The reefs are in danger and need our help! Learn more: ua-cam.com/video/vz7dfki0hBI/v-deo.html
God bless you
That's awesome!
Do you choose locations that are less prone to inevitable future bleaching events?
ayo who disliked this they click on coral restoration they get coral restoration
underwater haven😇😇😇😇restoraration is 👍💞💞
👍🏻👍🏻
😍😍😍👍
How can I sign up for a dive???
Head to our website coralrestoration.org/dive-programs we offer a full schedule of single day diving to restore the reef!
I will like to help
👍🏻👍🏻👱♀️
OUR NURSHERIES HAVE OVER 500 TREESH
Why not cultivate new coral's in Aquariums.
its easier to do it on the ocean deap
I wish this was a thing in Aruba. The government lets big corp build hotel and destroy out nature. Our once beautiful coral are now just dead and it’s been ever so :(
It's great to restore coral reefs, but if warming oceans caused the decline how will new restoration survive?
Most of the corals in the Keys died of diseases/pathogens spewed by the outflow sewage pipes in South FL. Carysfort reef in Key Largo was packed with Elkhorn coral and most died in 1986. Did u have global warming in 1986? There's a disease ravaging the coral in the Keys as we speak, mostly killing stony corals. This should help re-establish coral colonies but need more effort.
You keep talking about biodiversity but plant a mono-culture. Thumbs up for the effort, but I don't get that part.
omg please
They primarily plant staghorn because they are super corals and are more likely to survive extreme temperature changes within the ocean's ecosystem thus less likely to suffer bleaching as an effect.
Trust the scientists when they make decisions, it's more thought out than one may expect 💕
We work to return genetically diverse corals to the reef so we work with over 1000 genotypes! Though corals of the same species look similar to the naked eye their genotypes are all very different giving them diverse traits that are not represented phenotypically in the way they look but rather internally in how they function and react to their environment! We are actively outplanting hundreds of diverse and unique genotypes across 4 different species!
90k metres ? thats something but in perspective ...its pitiful. surely we can do better together? microfragmenting is a better technique.
OK, time for some perspective. 90,000 square metres is a square of 300 metres on each side, or 9 Hectares.
This is a pitiful attempt to recover reefs, and its main purpose is to obtain funding and to make the people involved feel good about themselves. It is in no way a serious attempt to help reefs, and the cost is astronomical, even on one reef.
So, don't start thinking this is a model which can save the world's reefs: it cannot do that.
Acros grow 6 inches per year...there's a large field off of Lauderdale and in various other locations(i.e. Pompano where acropora thickets are growing fast). I bet these colonies are from the coral restoration that takes place in the Keys.
I agree, and always with the "biggest" or "largest". What has that got to do with the issue. And it is nothing new, reef tour operators on Australia's Great Barrier Reef have been carrying out reef conservation work for decades, and they have a far larger reef to work on. Two of the most serious issues for the Great Barrier Reef is nutrient laden runoff in the rivers feeding out to the reef and the Crown Of Thorns predator starfish.
