The black coral of the Haven was growing slowly on the starboard deck, nearly sixty meters deep. Something or someone violently pulled it off. The chronicle of the intervention of the Marevivo team of volunteers.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

There was a black coral branch<\/strong> that needed to be saved. He had grown up, not too timidly on the starboard deck of the Haven<\/strong>, just beyond the point where the aft castle joins it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below, beside the railing, this branch was slowly developing when someone or something violently broke<\/strong> it off.<\/p>\n\n\n

It could be the fault of a fishing net or line. But he could also have been a careless diver, with a violent flick of the fin or with any accidental maneuver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Someone reported it, documenting the disaster. But something had to be done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The news reached Marevivo<\/strong><\/a>, which has been working for the protection of the sea and the environment<\/strong> since 1985. Against pollution and illegal fishing, for the study of biodiversity, the promotion and enhancement of marine protected areas, education in schools and universities for sustainable development and raising awareness on all issues related to the sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
