Save The Coral Reefs With Our New Ocean Conservation Program!
Save The Coral Reefs With Our New Ocean Conservation Program!
Each limited-edition pair of shoes that is purchased will help restore 10cm² of coral reef off of Coral Vita’s home of Great Bahama island, where coral bleaching, natural disasters, and tourist development have greatly impacted their reefs.
Ocean conservation is a vital part of maintaining healthy coral reefs. Coral is an indicator species, an oxygen generator, a coastline protector, and the life force for over 25% of the ocean’s biodiversity (though reefs cover only 1% of the ocean floor).
But this great connector is in extreme danger. Globally, reefs have been decimated to merely 50% of their healthy populations — and, without intervention, over 90% will be gone by 2050.
Coral reef structures buffer shorelines against 97% of the potentially destructive wave energy from storms and floods, helping to prevent loss of life, property damage, and erosion.
When reefs are damaged or destroyed, the absence of this natural barrier can increase the damage to coastal communities from normal wave activity and violent storms alike.
Almost 1 billion people live in coastal areas adjacent to or near coral reefs so protecting coral reefs is vital to their lives. Join us in restoring our coral reefs one pair of shoes at a time!
