Cancun's famous coral reef is under environmental stress because of its popularity among divers. These underwater sculptures draw divers away from the reef. The sculptures are made of special materials that promote growth of new coral.

The idea is nice but the way to protect it is not . we should not add contrive beauties to landscape of nature.
I like this. we need creativity to change and improve the world. We are unlimited so lets use our creativity to make the world a better place
OMG! I dont want to dive here.
I like the idea of using art in a functional way like this to draw attention to the plight of the coral reefs. That they become part of the system and contribute to promoting more coral growth is great - scuttled ships have been used this way for years, what a great idea to create another form of diving experience for underwater tourists to explore!
I love it!!! It's like an underwater art gallery :)!!
I like the idea, but it will have to be continually evolving. The sculptures will grow over (as intended) eventually. New sculptures will need to be added as old ones become unrecognizable.
