    This was so inspiring! Restoring corals is my dream job. I was first introduced to the idea when I watched "50 minutes to save the world" by Amir Zakeri and I knew that I wanted to dedicate my life to saving the environment. I always used to joke about shifting to Australia and restoring corals and whenever my friends used to come across anything remotely related to coral reefs, they'd always mention me XD. That dream seemed unattainable however now, I think I might be able to achieve it. Just praying to get an undergraduate scholarship in an Australian university!!

      when the coral gets big enough the take it of, they study the reefs and check on them all the time and are most likely biodegradable just in case they float away.

      Not nearly enough. In Mexico there are very few opportunities to do science, and there is even less interest and support from the government or the private sector to study and preserve the marine environment, which is terrible given that we happen to have more than 11,000 km of coastline.

Because if we ignore plastic in the coastal area it might go to the ocean and its very harmful to every specie living in the ocean. Please lets clean together the coastal area.❤😚 you can visit my channel of you have time..keep safe everyone❤

    The biggest driver of global warming is animal agriculture, as it beats emissions for all of the transportation sector combine. It is also the main driver for deforestation around the world, it is also the main driver of ocean dead zones and species extinction. So if you want to do one thing is to keep meat, dairy, fish, shellfish and eggs off of your plate, and only then will we have a chance of reversing the warming climate.
