Now, imagine several of these bundles stacked together. What you have is a bio-diverse haven, a sanctuary for various species of flora and fauna. This is the essence of an EcoReef.</p><p style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: -apple-system, Roboto, SegoeUI, &quot;Segoe UI&quot;, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, &quot;Microsoft YaHei&quot;, &quot;Meiryo UI&quot;, Meiryo, &quot;Arial Unicode MS&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-variation-settings: var(--cib-type-body2-font-variation-settings); line-height: var(--cib-type-body2-line-height); margin: 12px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: start; user-select: text; word-break: break-word;">EcoReefs are accessible to everyone around the globe at no cost.

Twisted branches, rocks, and rubble are bound together using a durable binder. This structure forms a protective ‘cave’, safeguarding flora and fauna from their inception through their juvenile stage until they become self-sufficient.</p><p style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: -apple-system, Roboto, SegoeUI, &quot;Segoe UI&quot;, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, &quot;Microsoft YaHei&quot;, &quot;Meiryo UI&quot;, Meiryo, &quot;Arial Unicode MS&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-variation-settings: var(--cib-type-body2-font-variation-settings); line-height: var(--cib-type-body2-line-height); margin: 12px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: start; user-select: text; word-break: break-word;"><b>Here’s how it works:</b></p><ul style="background-color: white; color: #111111; display: flex; flex-direction: column; font-family: -apple-system, Roboto, SegoeUI, &quot;Segoe UI&quot;, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, Helvetica, &quot;Microsoft YaHei&quot;, &quot;Meiryo UI&quot;, Meiryo, &quot;Arial Unicode MS&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; gap: 4px; margin: 12px 0px 0px; padding-inline-start: 24px; text-align: start;"><li>Twisted branches and organic materials interlock to create a meshed surface.
