This is pretty impressive!

Very cool.  Much of the coral in the video already appears to be in trouble.  An environmental turnaround can't happen fast enough for me.

That's very cool. Maybe this will help people better realize how alive the coral reefs are and do a better job of protecting them.

I hope so.  Fervently.

We can thank global warming for this mess. We need more people like Elon Musk to help turn things around.

Yes, plus a general populace who is willing to sacrifice convenience for environmental success.

Agreed! There are so many ways humans can help.  If everyone did just one something, I believe the benefit to the planet would be amazing. I'm a hardcore recycler. When we have family things at my house, I check the trash to make sure the grandkidlettes didn't toss out bottles or cans, and when I do find one I make such a stink about it. Recycling is one thing I can do within the walls of my home. Then once or twice a year I take the stuff and get cash back for it.

I've always recycled, but now our city is forcing everyone to do it.

Everyone here has received different bins for sorting trash. If you don't separate your stuff in to the proper containers (food waste, cardboard/paper, glass/metal) it won't get picked up. I prefer this new method as I no longer have to drive to the recycling depo.

Anything that can be returned for money I give to boy scouts / girl guides that come around twice a year.

Very nice!  I wish I had a food waste collection in my area.  I presume they are composting this for use in area parks, etc.  Great idea.

Yeah, they are doing this for a bunch of reasons. I'll have to find the booklet again for all the details.
