Synopsis: Florida has the only barrier coral reef system in the continental U.S. It’s like having the Grand Canyon underwater—a natural treasure that took millions of years to create and deserves our protection. Since the 1970’s, there has been an estimated decrease of 90% of our indigenous coral coverage in some areas of Florida, including some species that have experienced a decline of more than 97%.
