#EyeOnClimate // @jmadler: “The Mesoamerican Reef is the longest barrier reef in the Western Hemisphere, stretching about 1,000 km from the northern tip of the Yucatán down to Belize, Guatemala, and Honduras. There are 47 marine protected areas along the reef, including this one in Puerto Morelos, Mexico, just south of Cancun. . Healthy coral reefs can reduce up to 97% of wave energy coming to shore, which makes them especially important natural barriers during hurricanes. During a four-day training course on rapid reef repair in Puerto Morelos, @nature_org, Mexico’s National Park service, and local reef researchers came together to train local people to be Guardians of the Reef. Shot on assignment for @nature_org.” . In the lead up to #COP25, the next @UN meeting on #climateaction, we’re highlighting climate solutions for nature, from nature with @Salesforce and the voices of @NatGeo photographers. Share the solutions you see, using #EyeOnClimate.
