Corals are incredibly diverse, with many species We are leading CORAL into a new era of science- and varieties spread across the reefs. Corals have based, innovative conservation work that we have adapted for hundreds of millions of years, and if designed to enable reefs to thrive not just today, allowed, will continue to do so. For example, some but for generations to come. corals can live in warmer water; others can thrive Now is the time. Join Us! in polluted oceans. Special corals like these, and their offspring, may be best suited for the reefs of the future. Our aim is to ensure that enough of these corals survive on enough healthy coral reefs so they can repopulate other nearby reef sites. In this way, corals—and everything that depends on them—will have an opportunity to adapt to a changing environment.

Dr. Michael Webster Jim Tolonen Coral Reefs: Ecosystems Full of Life CORAL 2015 ANNUAL REPORT l 4

Coral reefs are among the most diverse ecosystems in the world and are home to 25 percent of all forms of ocean life. In fact, it’s estimated that 2 million species are found in, on and around coral reefs. 500 Million People Worldwide Rely on Coral Reefs for Food and Income Coral Reefs Provide the Basis for an Estimated $400 Billion a Year in the Global Fishing and Tourism Industry Corals are the heart of the reef ecosystem and local and global threats are taking a toll on their ability to thrive and survive. Sea temperatures are rising, and ocean waters are becoming more acidic—when these global threats combine with local threats, it leaves corals extremely vulnerable. Scientists Say that Without Intervention, Nearly All Reefs will be Threatened by 2050 There is hope for coral reefs and each and every year, the Coral Reef Alliance is making a difference.

CORAL REEFS Making a Difference for Coral Reefs CORAL 2015 ANNUAL REPORT l 5

For more than 20 years, the Coral Reef Alliance has worked to unite communities to save coral reefs. For reefs to survive global change, we must address local threats by building management systems that effectively protect coral reefs. We do this by: • Working with communities to address local threats such as poor water quality and overfishing • Developing conservation financing plans that allow communities to autonomously manage their marine resources and protect coral reefs • Connecting local communities to science and research that drives more informed management decisions • Building local capacity and partnerships to ensure communities benefit socially, culturally and economically from conservation efforts • Engaging with policymakers and government officials to advocate on behalf of local conservation efforts that protect coral reefs In 2015, we demonstrated that local conservation efforts can improve the health of coral reefs. Our successes in Fiji, Indonesia, Hawaiʻi and Honduras add up to something greater—a healthy future for coral reefs and the communities that depend on them around the globe. Together, we can change the trajectory for coral reefs. Reducing Local Threats CORAL 2015 ANNUAL REPORT l 6

Clean Water for Reefs Our Clean Water for Reefs Initiative is a global effort that unites local communities around the world. Together, we develop solutions that address water pollution from land-based sources that is killing our reefs—from sewage pollution to contaminated runoff and sedimentation. In 2015, CORAL achieved positive, long-term outcomes for coral reefs and communities.

• In West End Roatan, Honduras, we helped connect 128 homes and businesses (82 percent of the community) to a sewage treatment plant. This prevents 11.3 million gallons of untreated sewage from entering the ocean each year. • In West Maui, Hawai‘i, we held our first Reef-Friendly Shoreline Innovations course for the hotel industry—every participant is actively implementing reef-friendly landscaping and sustainability projects to prevent stormwater runoff from reaching the ocean. The projects and improved management practices cover more than 112 acres of sensitive West Maui shoreline property. • In Puakō, Hawai‘i, we worked with the Puakō community to reach a major milestone in our efforts to eliminate household sewage contamination with the release of a comprehensive Preliminary Engineering Report that supports the Clean Water for Reefs Puakō project. The report provides a thorough analysis of three potential wastewater treatment solutions for the Puakō community and a formal recommendation on the best option—an onsite treatment facility.

Thanks for explaining to me about the herbivores. I’m going to throw them back now. West Maui fisherman “ Sustainable Fishing ” Many coral reefs support livelihoods in small villages and communities and provide an important source of food and income; however, overfishing can disrupt the ecological balance on coral reefs. For example, when too many herbivorous fish are taken from a reef, seaweeds can overgrow reef-building corals. More than 55 percent of the world’s reefs are threatened by overfishing and destructive fishing. Well-managed marine protected areas are a valuable tool for combating overfishing. Here’s a glimpse into how we helped protect reef fish in 2015: • In Fiji, the Kubulau Resource Management Committee apprehended five illegal poachers in the Namena Marine Reserve in December alone—a result of an enforcement protocol that we helped them create and implement. • In Indonesia, we worked with six villages in Northern Bali to develop community-based management plans that outline strategies to promote sustainable tourism and other marine livelihoods across a network of marine protected areas. • In Maui, Hawai‘i, we educated 138 fishermen on the importance of protecting herbivores in West Maui’s Kahekili Herbivore Fisheries Management Area (KHFMA). The fishermen responded positively. A recent report from the Division of Aquatic Resources shows that the KHFMA is working: parrotfish biomass has increased by 138 percent; certain seaweeds, which are bad for corals, have declined; and beneficial crustose coralline algae have increased.

LOCAL THREATS LOCAL Reefs Tomorrow Initiative CORAL 2015 ANNUAL REPORT l 8

Around the world, coral reefs face many threats, including increasing temperatures, overfishing, pollution and sedimentation. Despite these threats, some reefs show remarkable resiliency and are thriving. Established with a grant from the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation in 2012, the Reefs Tomorrow Initiative (RTI) was a collaboration among scientists from academic institutions and conservation organizations who used computer models and field studies to investigate how healthy reefs respond to threats. RTI worked closely with managers to help ensure they can integrate these new scientific findings into their coral reef management efforts across the Pacific. CORAL was honored to be a part of this amazing collaborative effort, and we are excited to share some early results of RTI’s work here.

SCIENCE Conservation Action: Through the Eyes of Communities CORAL 2015 ANNUAL REPORT l 9

A picture is worth a thousand words, and when you ask a community to share their environmental concerns around coral reefs through photography, you uncover an extraordinary tapestry of images that tells an authentic story. In Indonesia, two small fishing villages in Bali—Tulamben and Amed—are popular tourist destinations and feature some of the best diving on the island. Dive tourism, fishing and farming are the lifeblood of these communities, and there is a deep concern about the health and management of local coral reefs. We are working with our partners in these and other villages along the north coast of Bali to establish a network of well-managed marine protected areas that are ecologically connected and socioeconomically sustainable. Effectively managing this network requires the support of local communities. To garner this support, community concerns and knowledge must be understood and incorporated into management plans. CORAL 2015 ANNUAL REPORT l 10

We always thought the trash had come from elsewhere brought here by the ocean current, but the pictures we took show that it came from our communities, so we have to stop blaming others for this problem. “ Nengah Polos To build an effective management plan, CORAL needed to give villagers a way to share unfiltered ” opinions on core concerns. We partnered with Lens of the Community of Indonesia through the Photovoices program to help residents document their natural environments, cultures, traditions and lifestyles with photos. The photos tell powerful stories about how community members interact with nature. They identify issues and challenges that may affect management priorities. In both Tulamben and Amed, the photos identified sedimentation, trash and tourism activities as major threats to reefs. This was the first time community members had an opportunity to voice their concerns and their vision of their future and the future of their reefs. Together, we can use these photos to build management plans, and help governments and local NGOs better prioritize conservation initiatives. CORAL 2015 ANNUAL REPORT l 11

We can save coral reefs. Thriving reefs scattered across “ the planet show us that it is possible to have healthy ecosystems with the right kind of management. Coral conservation is no different from other social movements: it too can go from seeming impossible to becoming inevitable with the efforts of individuals, local communities and organizations like the Coral Reef Alliance.

Every minute of every day, we benefit from earth’s ecosystems, which not have effective management systems, and local groups struggle to provide us food, medicines, and even the air we breathe. However, finance their conservation efforts. Also, there are gaps in the region, ecosystems are changing at an alarming rate due to a combination of where critically important reefs—for their diversity and connectivity—have local and global stressors.
