Some refer to coral reefs as the “rainforests of the ocean” because of their importance to marine ecosystems. Even though coral reefs make up only one-tenth of the ocean, 25% of all known marine species live there. According to the World Resources Institute, coral reefs generate about $1.6 billion for the Indonesian economy yearly.
However, increased global warming, ocean acidification and over-fishing are causing a decline in coral reefs across the world. This may lead to irreversible damage to the marine ecosystems that so many species, including humans, depend on.
Livingseas is building a thriving coral reef ecosystem by constructing, installing, and monitoring coral reef stars. These coral reef stars are made with biodegradable materials and each of them hosts 18 baby corals.
Livingseas’ operations are guided by these 3 principles:
About 40% of the world’s population lives within 100 kilometres of the coast facing the increased risk of coastal hazards – stormwater, tidal waves, tsunamis etc – due to the effects of global warming. Coral reef restoration projects can protect humans from these risks by reducing wave energy by 97%. In addition, about 25% of all marine life are dependent on coral reefs at some point in their life cycle.
Livingseas’ main project is situated in Padangbai. The coral population in this area has declined drastically and the coast faces an increased storm risk. Coral reefs are necessary to maintain an ecosystem that sustains local tourism and fisheries.
Livingseas also runs a quarterly fellowship program which provides training to members of the local community which guarantees their involvement in maintaining the coral reefs for the long term.
