"Did you know harmful algae blooms have tripled since 1984, closing beaches, causing people illnesses, and killing marine life?" In 2020, for year six of St Pete's Shine Mural Festival, @StPeteArtsAlliance partnered with @PangeaSeed Foundation and produced a special Sea Walls: Artists for Oceans edition. For his contribution on the west wall of the Grand Central Brewhouse Jabari Reed-Diop, aka IBOMS, depicted the harmful impact of red tides in a way that also stays true to his artistic style.

The world has lost roughly half of its coral reef in the last 30 years… Science estimate 90% of corals will die by 2050 due to human impact. Without bold action we risk losing them all in OUR lifetime. The @1up_crew_official and @coralguardian collaborated with the @pangeaseed Foundation’s @seawalls_ Bali team and the @allcapsstore family to create the world’s first underwater 3D graffiti installation that serves as an artificial coral reef to help regenerate corals and marine life in Nusa Penida. This amazing piece of ARTivism can be found just in front of the Next Level Cafe along the JL Ped - Buyuk road in Nusa Penida. Go and check it for yourself. And help us to protect our beautiful marine environment by not using single use plastic.

As the nation plans new defenses against the more powerful storms and higher tides expected from climate change, one project stands out.
Audacious!
Excerpt:
As the nation plans new defenses against the more powerful storms and higher tides expected from climate change, one project stands out: an ambitious proposal to build a nearly 60-mile "spine" of concrete seawalls, earthen barriers, floating gates and steel levees on the Texas Gulf Coast.
Like other oceanfront projects, this one would protect homes, delicate ecosystems and vital infrastructure, but it also has another priority — to shield some of the crown jewels of the petroleum industry, which is blamed for contributing to global warming and now wants the federal government to build safeguards against the consequences of it.
The plan is focused on a stretch of coastline that runs from the Louisiana border to industrial enclaves south of Houston that are home to one of the world's largest concentrations of petrochemical facilities, including most of Texas' 30 refineries, which represent 30 percent of the nation's refining capacity.
Texas is seeking at least $12 billion for the full coastal spine, with nearly all of it coming from public funds. Last month, the government fast-tracked an initial $3.9 billion for three separate, smaller storm barrier projects that would specifically protect oil facilities.
