@markwyner Thanks for posting these photos.

@markwyner That is fantastic! Their efforts and care touch my heart and soul.

@markwyner This is GREAT news.

@markwyner
Magnificent! Thank you.

@markwyner this is so wonderful and full of hope thank you

@markwyner

It's just spectacular and so healing just to see this.

@markwyner So awesome.

@markwyner

well ... you know ... that is really bad propaganda 😉

@markwyner Thank you for sharing this. What a difference!

@markwyner Wow. This is fabulous!

@markwyner That is impressive.

@markwyner
Coral Gardeners are doing some similar work in Tahiti/ French Polynesia
It would be great to see it go global

@markwyner @adrianco would love to see get amplified by 1000x and be able to bring that work to the entire world! 🤘🏻

@markwyner I searched for an article where the transplantation process was explained in detail and I found one from India.

@markwyner
This is great. Watching the seemingly unstoppable destruction of the living world sometimes becomes very depressing and frustrating. Things like this bring a small glimmer of hope.

@markwyner
Thank you for showing this! I have been feeling so low about wildlife and the environment, it feels like it's all is in a downward spiral. Seeing this restoration project is really encouraging, if people put their mind to it miracles can happen. It's just a matter of overcoming the negative propaganda from the fossil fuel industry, they nearly always have a hand in destruction of one sort or another. Seeing this coral reef does give hope.

@markwyner Brilliant work. Hats off to all of them, and a big THANK YOU

@markwyner I bug the hell out of everyone about planting more mangroves. Mangroves are super cleaners that sustain huge amounts of life, protect coastlines, diminish storm surges, and is an eco-superhero! #environment

@markwyner great work!
Also, the website has nice content and it's amazing to read what's being done in #spain and #indonesia to recover corals!

@markwyner
Beautiful and makes me hopeful!

@markwyner this is Amazing.

@markwyner won’t the sun and pollution just kill and bleach the new coral I’m the same way?

@markwyner Thank you nice to see something beautiful and encouraging as I begin my morning.

@markwyner This gives me hope, thank you for sharing.

@markwyner Thank you for sharing a spot of great news. I will now do some research to see just how they are accomplishing such a remarkable improvement.

@markwyner Muy bueno🙏🏽

@markwyner cannot love this more. any plans to work on Barrier Reef? or maybe they already are

@markwyner That's exciting. Thank you for sharing.

@markwyner wow!!

@markwyner I really needed some good news today, thank you for posting this!

@markwyner this is great!

@markwyner I will adopt one! Thanks for sharing

@markwyner Amazing achievement!! Wow.

@markwyner ❤️ Happy news

@markwyner

Something positive.
...maybe I'll move there!!

@markwyner also worth a view https://www.chasingcoral.com/ #chasingcoral

@markwyner As a scuba diver I can say, suprisingly, there has been a lot of coral regrowth in the past few years... Areas of the maldives for example show similar transitions.

@markwyner
Now to keep the humans away or they'll destroy it again

@markwyner my daughter in law runs a ocean based coral farm in Bali Indonesia. They frequently supply coral to restauration efforts and reef repopulation peojects. Important work for the future of our planet. My daughter in law has a website
Www.balicoralfarm.com
#balicoralfarm

@markwyner @shyduroff I’ve dived and snorkelled on areas where regeneration projects were going on - various frameworks a with tiny corals attached here and there. It’s great to see that these projects can genuinely work and restore self-sustaining ecosystems.

@markwyner That’s so impressive! A collective sigh and thanks from citizens who care.

@markwyner When I first saw those photos, I thought they'd been reversed by mistake. Thank you for sharing this!

@markwyner that’s incredible! Thank you for posting it!

@markwyner thanks for sharing:)

@markwyner this is so beautiful to see. I found out that I can turn my ashes into a brick of coral substrate when I die and I’m totally doing it. Can’t wait to spend eternity in ocean city and have a bunch of shrimp live in me lmao

@markwyner

Fantastic!

@markwyner Amazing! Now, how can we get this group down the Great Barrier Reef?

@markwyner I once swam in the great Barrier reef, and thought it was destined to destruction, really delighted to see this post.

@markwyner very nice indeed. I needed this!

@markwyner wow! 👏👏👏

@markwyner this is beautiful news

@markwyner Thanks- I did not know that reefs could be restored so quickly

@markwyner What did they do?

@markwyner @w7voa

Definitely good things going on, in parts of the ocean.

But....

I saw this graphic of #OceanPollution the US is not on the graph, that's strange.

It seems after China stopped accepting #plasticwaste for money, there were others to pick up the garbage, so to speak.

@markwyner Beautiful

@markwyner This is fantastic news, thanks for sharing 😊 so easy to focus on all the negatives around us!

@markwyner wonderful 😍

And here https://youtu.be/ceAlK_Fw8ZQ is another great example of #CoralReefRestoration by Coral Restoration Foundation, in Key Largo, Florida, that uses "coral nurseries".

@markwyner
How?

@markwyner I was very lucky to be invited to dive in Garajau marine reserve today. It's incredible the work people are doing. We just need a lot more of it. There were Seahorses, and Turtles and all sorts. Just incredible.

@markwyner It is good to see good things :blobaww: thanks for sharing!!

@markwyner amazing!!! So good!!!🙏🏼👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽❤️

@markwyner I love this

@markwyner Thanks! Needed some good news for a change.

@markwyner very cool

@markwyner the future seems so dark sometimes that it feels good to remind that it is possible

@markwyner how much it cost in money?
This days - businesses intentionally destroy ecosystem to make one more successful business about "restoring ecosystem" and make even more money, all those "eco-companies" are commercial and for profit.
