Dr. Melissa Giresi explains how regular scuba divers can help save the coral reefs! Volunteers can actually help maintain and grow new coral in the Florida Keys with the Ocean Conservation Foundation, which is a branch of Rainbow Reef.
She walks us through the process of diving in the coral nurseries and helping save the reefs.
If you've ever wanted to dive in a magical underwater farm of tropical fish and coral, this is how to do it!
