An interesting article from the BBC...

It's not happening on a massive scale, yet. But, if these pilot projects
work out...who knows.

I heard about this at MACNA, as Walt Smith included it in
his presentation.

According to the article, power must be retained for the
corals to survive. I wonder if the lower current acts
slightly like a UV sterilizer?

The article said Tom Goreau and Wolf Hilbertz worry that it may be too
late to save the majority of corals worldwide. Is the future of the
worlds coral reefs that bleak?
