Hainan leads the way in protecting, restoring coral reefs

However, coral reefs have been declining globally due to climate change, outbreaks of harmful organisms, and human activities.

Hainan is a significant area for coral reef distribution in China. In recent years, the province has been steadfast in scientifically protecting and restoring coral reef ecosystems, continuously enhancing the diversity, stability and sustainability of marine ecosystems.

Today, Chen has moved beyond the solitary struggle. More and more research teams and environmental protection forces in Hainan are forming a united front to safeguard the "underwater rainforest".
