Koh Talu clam and coral planting

Post by buksida »

Blue World group organised this clam and coral planting project at Koh Talu on March 12th, we went a long to help out (and I took my son for his first open water intro dive).



Hotter seas this year have resulted in a lot of coral bleaching and death so we need to replant it often!

Sunscreen chemicals also cause coral bleaching. Scientists haven't determined how much bleaching is caused by sunscreen and how much by warmer water.
