How do we deal?

Let’s continue towork on…

• Join beach clean-ups

• Participate in tree plantings

• Practice reef etiquette

Ridge-to-Reef Approach

• “BIG PICTURE” Approach to Conservation

• Traces land-based pollution to marine resources from the mountain ridge to our coral reefs

• Collective conservation efforts to address source of land-based pollution
