The SITE Florida Caribbean board decided to theme this year\u2019s Earth Day event around reef reforestation. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>  <p><span><span><span>Our destinations are surrounded by the ocean, from the many Caribbean islands, to most of the state of Florida. Tragically though, the reefs within our oceans are decaying at an unprecedented pace due mostly to increasing ocean temperatures and as a result of the impacts of global warming, coral disease, and acidification. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>  <p><span><span><span>You can think of coral reefs as underwater rainforests. In fact, over 50% of the oxygen we breathe comes from plants in the ocean. Corals are animals (not plants), but healthy corals live in symbiosis with underwater plants. Together, they not only make beautiful snorkeling sites, but also work as natural power plants, literally churning carbon dioxide into oxygen. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>   <figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/siteglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Screenshot202023-05-0420at2018.38.32.png\" alt=\"site\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/siteglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Screenshot202023-05-0420at2018.38.32.png\" alt=\"site\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>  <p><span><span><span>For Earth Day, we organized two events revolving around reef reforestation, starting with a reef renourishment sponsored by the 5-star Kimpton Seafire in the Caribbean\u2019s Cayman Islands. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>  <p><span><span><span>For our second event, we partnered with the Opal Reefhouse Resort in Key Largo, Florida, and Mote Marine Laboratory &amp; Aquarium, an independent nonprofit leader of world-class ocean research and science education. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>  <p><span><span><span>We held a hands-on reef restoration educational workshop, followed by a happy hour with plant-based food overlooking the Gulf of Mexico. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>  <p><span><span><span>Under the guidance of Mote\u2019s scientist, chapter members turned into coral farmers for the day on a land-based coral nursery adjacent to the Reefhouse Resort. We learned that corals are indeed animals &#8211; \u201csessile\u201d organisms, meaning they don\u2019t move but are affixed to the reef, which is why many think they are plants. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>  <p><span><span><span>Most structures that we call &#8220;coral&#8221; are in fact made up of&nbsp;hundreds or thousands of tiny coral creatures called&nbsp;polyps. Each soft-bodied polyp \u2014 most no thicker than a fingernail \u2014 secretes a hard outer skeleton of limestone (calcium carbonate) that attaches either to rock or the skeletons of other polyps.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>  <p><span><span><span>&nbsp;After a bit of coral education, we turned to a hands-on activity and learned to fragment corals by cutting them into smaller pieces on a diamond band saw. This is called \u201cmicro-fragmenting coral\u201d (aka, making coral babies) and has similarities to grafting fruit trees. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>  <p><span><span><span>We then glued the coral fragments on a mushroom-like pin before transferring them back into the \u201ccoral spa.\u201d Here, they will grow polyps until they are large enough to either repeat the fragmentation cycle OR will be put into the ocean in about six months. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>   <figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/siteglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/reforest.jpg\" alt=\"re\"\/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/siteglobal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/reforest.jpg\" alt=\"re\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>  <p><span><span><span>This is where our other event, held in the Cayman Islands, docked on. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>  <p><span><span><span>There, a team of volunteers, including Seafire guardians, transplanted corals out to various reefs surrounding Grand Cayman, ensuring both the vitality and expansion of Mother Nature\u2019s underwater coral showcase. Non-divers went on a sea-turtle walk, safeguarding nesting sites and cleaning up the beach, which is also essential in keeping reefs clean and healthy. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>  <p><span><span><span>To culminate our Earth Day celebrations, we gathered with industry friends, hotel sponsors and scientists over organic plant based hors d\u2019oeuvres and \u2014 <em>I guess you can call most alcohol also plant based<\/em>? \u2014 libations!<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>  <p><span><span><span>This is a fabulous example of a very local and very meaningful activity that you can implement with your next corporate incentive \u2014 not just on Earth Day but year-round. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>  <p><span><span><span>You will not only help re-grow the reef, but will leave with a new sense of the complex underwater eco-system (think: teamwork) and appreciation of its beauty and importance to life on land and underwater (think: synergy and the UN Sustainable Development Goals). <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>  <p><span><span><span>We\u2019ve shared this Earth Day event with you too, as incentive travel programs are shifting to become more purposeful and integrate meaningful local experiences.
