David, as an oceanic specialist, gave an insight into the world of coral reefs degradation, the bleaching effects that climate change has done to the seas and how that has affected other species. He shares a detailed account of his work, and how we must act now if we are to start to counteract the growing compounded issue. We were blissfully joined by the cicadas in the trees giving a gentle humming sound and this was disrupted by a sudden crash of a palm tree branch falling, along with the resident hadeda wanting to get involved. All offering their insight into what we need to start doing if we are to combat this degradation together! Inspiring positivity together....Together we make Tofauti.Support the show (https://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/donation-web/charity?charityId=1017251&amp;utm_campaign=donatebtn&amp;utm_source=extbtn)

Episode  Three - Dr David Obura,  Founding Director – CORDIO East Africa

Coral reefs are iconic, but we have all seen the images of bleached areas that were previously teeming with life and colour. These ecosystems, and more broadly coastlines, are a vital part of the efforts to protect biodiversity. So how are coral reefs doing? Are we too late? Can we still secure a better future for reefs and people?   In this week’s episode, Brit talks to Dr. David Obura. David has studied coral reef resilience and adaptation his whole life. He founded CORDIO, a non-profit organisation specialising in finding solutions that benefit marine ecosystems and people.
