A Message from the Depths
There’s a pass in the South Pacific, off the island of Fakarava in French Polynesia, where the underwater world thrives—particularly for sharks. Known as “The Wall of Sharks,” this pass is home to hundreds of grey reef sharks that drift with the current during the day. Nearby, the Magic Carpet Ride coral reef houses a vibrant ecosystem now facing the increasing threat of coral bleaching. Despite being relatively free from agricultural runoff, the reef’s slow deterioration underscores a sobering global issue we must address.
If you’re looking to support ocean conservation efforts, consider:
- Mao Mana Foundation: A non-profit organization protecting the sharks of French Polynesia. They serve as a platform for shark research and educational outreach while emphasizing inclusion for the local community.
- Only One: An action platform working to restore ocean health and tackle the climate crisis through collective action.
