Part 4:
Coral Farming at CoralVita
CoralVita is a for-profit, coral farm that restores and preserves coral reefs around the world. CoralVita strives to raise climate-resilient corals in their on-land, farm tanks. These many coral species have been through the micro-fragmentation process, which creates cloned coral masses that are then planted in the oceans near where their host corals were harvested. This protects biodiversity and coastal communities.
Caperton visits CoralVita, the coral farm on Grand Bahama. While one of the interns, all of whom are paid, tours Caperton through the farm, she explains the process of micro-fragmentation, and how this method produces more healthy corals to be implanted into the sea. Caperton then talks with a CoralVita marine ecologist and a marine conservation biologist. She learns about the community outreach for educating the public about the importance of healthy coral reefs.
