SAVE THE CORAL REEF

Barbados’ reefs were already challenged by climate change, high sea temperatures and coral bleaching. The presence of the Lionfish has also had a dramatic impact on the island’s coral reefs.

There are now Lionfish that eat up to 30 times its body weight in other fish and creatures and shrimp and whatever it can find every single day.

The degradation of coral reefs and less sand being available on beaches were no longer just environmental issues, but extended to the socio-economic spheres.
