Coral reefs are one of the most biodiverse and productive ecosystems on Earth, home to more than a quarter of all marine species, including fish, mollusks, sea turtles, whales, dolphins, birds and more.
Reef systems are incredibly important to people as well, providing food, shoreline protection, jobs, oxygen, and water filtration services. Yet, coral reefs are disappearing at an unprecedented rate. Restoring Reefs will immerse you in the beauty of colorful reef habitats and motivate you to help protect these critically important living systems.
