Corals are living legacies.
They grow for hundreds of years, laying the foundation for reefs and creating complex, three-dimensional and colourful habitats home to a quarter of all marine life.
But sadly, climate change, disease, pollution and more are killing reefs all around the world. Some of our oldest and largest corals are being wiped out in a matter of days, and 90% of the world’s corals on track to die by 2050.
We can’t turn back time, but we do have the chance to reimagine, recreate and restore.
At the Perry Institute for Marine Science, we’re revolutionizing ocean conservation and creating a Caribbean-wide movement to save coral reefs…whether through reef restoration, innovation or inspiration.
Will you join us?
This Giving Tuesday, we’re asking you to adopt a coral or sponsor a coral nursery!
Together, let’s ensure coral reefs don’t become a thing of the past.
