solution to a man made problem by gardening coral or asexual coral propagation at the far end of
the channels and growing the reef to its original level, hence effectively stopping the deadly and
devastating rip currents. And by stopping the rip currents, bringing an end to the land degradation
of the surrounding beaches and restoring the natural beach formation process and loss of life. This
