Coral Vita restores dying reefs by growing resilient corals and transplanting them into degraded sites.
Up to one billion people rely on coral reefs for food, coastal protection, and income. But reefs are rapidly dying due to climate change, pollution, and overfishing. Over 50% have died since the 1970s, and over 90% are on track to die by 2050.
By establishing a global network of land-based farms to grow diverse corals resilient to changing ocean conditions,
Coral Vita helps protect the communities, nations, and industries that depend on healthy reefs.
