In this article we learn about the restoration of the Florida Keys coral reef. In 2002 a 36 foot boat ran aground in the Keys causing massive damage to the area. Hundreds of these grounding happen every year but this one manage to damage 376 square feet.
8 years later conservationist have manged to help nature rebuild itself. I think its really important to help protect these places. After all they are a key par of our ecosystem along the east coast. We as a people rely heavily on the ocean for food and fun and we should protect it from ourselves as we are it's biggest threat.
