Reef Check Malaysia Updates 👇
Big things are happening with our chapter in Malaysia.
🪸 Coral Bleaching: Good news! NOAA data shows warming waters are receding, but it doesn’t mean coral is safe. Data collection is still a #1 effort to support this fragile ecosystem.
🪼 UN Ocean Decade Conference: Our colleague Adzmin presented the Community-Based Coral Restoration Project at the UN conference in Barcelona, emphasizing a science-based approach to empowering local communities in marine conservation.
🌱 New Mersing Project: Seagrass monitoring + marine environmental programs are underway.
🚮 Waste Management: Local islanders are working on cost-effective solutions on Mantanani Island because despite the effort, transporting waste is still a financial burden.
🧹 Corporate Conservation: Tioman saw great collaborations with Watsons, KPMG, and SC Johnson on coral reef restoration, microplastic sampling, and crown of thorns cleanup.

We met our goal thanks to all of you!
Last month, we asked for help to fund the relaunch of @reefcheck_hawaii 🌺Your donations make it possible for our Hawaiʻi chapter to get in the water and conduct surveys while building up their local dive team.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. We can’t do this work without a community that believes in this effort.
