One of the coolest ocean related non-profits out there is the Coral Restoration Foundation, run by Ken Nedimyer. We have worked with Ken in the past to bring divers down to work on his projects, which is not only fun to work on but has the promise of turning around the downward spiral the world's coral reef system seems to be on. Ken grows and transplants live coral to the living reef, reestablishing portions of the reef that are in decline.
The plan is for the Coral Restoration Foundation to get an exhibit at the National Aquarium in Washington, DC. More on this later, but this would be great for those of us that live up here to be able to get a first hand look at what Ken and the CRF are doing.
