In this episode of Raw Green, Francesco De Lieto discusses the critical role of coral reefs with Krista Shoe, director of Mother of Corals (https://motherofcorals.org/).

The conversation highlights Mother of Corals’ ongoing work in Bocas del Toro, Panama, where they are actively restoring reefs and collaborating with local communities.

They explore the alarming decline of coral reefs, innovative restoration techniques, and the importance of community education in sustaining marine ecosystems. Krista shares insights on the success rates of restoration projects, the economic impact of coral reefs on local communities, and the challenges posed by climate change and overfishing.

This episode is part of the Podcasthon (www.podcasthon.org), a global initiative to raise awareness for numerous charities worldwide. We are thrilled to dedicate this episode to Mother of Corals, highlighting a cause that is close to our hearts—the health of our oceans and marine life.
