conservation effectiveness

Until now we acknowledge active participation from @icrs_students
"scientists advocate for a study of macroecology that places humans as a
key factor" https://www.instagram.com/p/CHPcJjzhAox/?igshid=18ic21zhqu7qg

We thanks also the many direct messages from international scientists with
interesting advices that every country should act now to be ready with
adaptation, mitigation and contingency plans for the increase on intensity
and frequency of hurricanes in the Caribbean Sea or Typhoons in the the
NorthPacific or Cyclones at the IndoPacific due to Climate Change.  For
example, according to Tom Goreau, from Jamaican experience, Biorock is the
only method that protects corals against both bleaching and Category 5
hurricanes. Bigger biorocks may helped to survive corals of hope.

Thanks to all !!
