World Population The world’s population is increasing day by day with large numbers of people living close to water and utilizing water for transportation. The population growth of the world is approximately increasing by 80 million/year. Global warming The result of global warming may lead to more regular large storms and tidal surges affecting people. Growing trade As world trade increases more ships are being used to transport cargo and people.

  • AIDA WR Attempt Carlos Coste Free Diving, the Netherlands
    Deepsea Challenge 2015 Slechts één In juni is op Bonaire de Deep- ademteug sea Challenge gehouden, een internationaal evenement voor freedivers. Onderwater- sport was er bij. Het wordt stil. De enige geluiden zijn de adem- haling van Carlos Coste, de golven die tegen het platform en de boten slaan en de stem van Gaby die aftelt. Alle ogen zijn gericht op de man die, gekleed in het grijze gladde pak, aan zijn slede hangt. Opperste concentratie op zijn gezicht, zijn energie naar binnen gericht. Zijn uitstraling reikt ver. Iedereen in de nabije om- geving voelt de rust en de kracht die vanuit zijn kern naar buiten straalt. De veiligheids- duikers staan gereed. Hij is bijna zover om zijn duik naar 150 meter te maken. De rem gaat van de slede en Carlos verdwijnt de diepte in. Met een snelheid van 1.6 meter per seconde gaat hij de duistere diepte tege- moet. Mijn hartslag is hoog. Het is bizar om getuige te zijn van een man die zich vrijwillig naar zo’n diepte laat afzakken. Ik krijg bijna geen adem van de spanning en vind het on- voorstelbaar hoe deze atleet zijn spanning kan loslaten en zich volledig kan focussen op zijn taak. Aan boord wordt de afdaling op de sonar gevolgd en hardop roept Gaby de diepte en tijd. Het is zenuwslopend. Carlos zal zo’n vier minuten onder water zijn, alleen, op zichzelf aangewezen. Passievol Ik ontmoet een charismatische man als ik Carlos mag interviewen, een week voor zijn eerste recordpoging. Hij is vriendelijk, extravert en spreekt vol passie over het freediven.

    CORAL REEF ALLIANCE | ANNUAL REPORT | 2019 A LETTER FROM CORAL’S BOARD CHAIR It’s my privilege to chair the Board of the Coral Reef Alliance (CORAL). It’s easy to fall into despair at the state of the world’s coral reefs, but our message is one of hope. We can act immediately in ways that will help coral reefs respond to the multiple threats of climate change and human action. I’ve been a scuba diver and free diver for decades, and like all long-time divers I’ve can establish 45 Adaptive Reefscapes around the world by 2045, we can ensure that been heartbroken to see the state of some of my favorite dive sites. Warming waters, coral reefs continue to exist to provide benefits to people and wildlife for generations pollution, overfishing and inconsiderate tourists have all damaged the reefs. And yet, to come. I’ve also seen coral reefs recover and come back after major events like hurricanes. Coral reefs have survived some pretty scary episodes since they evolved on planet We used these scientific findings to guide the creation of our five-year strategic earth, and with your help, we can ensure that they can survive and thrive. framework, which we finalized last year. Created by senior staff and the Board of Directors, the plan describes how we will build on our existing strengths and quickly Knowing that CORAL is leading the effort to save these ocean wonders for future leverage work done by our partners to establish a global network of Adaptive generations is incredibly encouraging and inspiring, and it gives me great pleasure to Reefscapes.
