      Hi, awesome Idea!
      It would be good idea to make blocks like this for surf breaks.
      I think in Australia on the gold cost also has something like that, when I’m not wrong.

      They should make those blocks like the Rosetta stone giving an explanation to future archeologists that will find them hundreds or even thousands of years from now. If some future ppl found them, obviously they would consider it as art but would ask why were they sunk kilometers away from the coastline. Also maybe have those blocks be bladed hooks to ensure that nets are easily cut.

      Bc that's all it will take. We produce things in the safest, and most sustainable (least efficient) way, and everyone pays the extra value lost by those working to produce it.... but noone would agree the SECOND it affected then; and that right there is the problem.

      ​ @theoriginalmonstermaker Abso-funking-lutely. We tend to blame corporate greed - but want fresh fish and meat every day, and cheap. THAT is the problem. Meat and fish/seafood should cost three times more whereas vegetables, legumes, and fruit should be cheap enough to be affordable in abundance every day. Also: trawling is illegal in most European countries, but it should be shunned worldwide - with dire consequences.

A lot of them are also foreign to the places they damage, so they're never at risk of prosecution anyway.

    this is such a brilliant idea, and seeing the wildlife reclaim the statues is so beautiful. I also think it really adds rather than detracts from the experience of going diving in the area, and I think it's also a really cool expression of culture. it reminds me of Ovid's metamorphosis, where the gods would often turn specific individuals into trees or animals or something else that rejoins nature. over time some of the more human looking statues will look as if they stepped right out of a story

    Hello there, Just discovered your channel.
    I find two things that are amazing in your videos:
    1) First, your solutions not only works, they tend to work fast
    2) Second, I am always struck by how cheap those solutions tends to be. That's truly amazing !
    Keep up the good work !

      I was looking for a comment like this. If anyone is unsure whether the seafood they eat is sustainable, there are a few organizations that certify/monitor sustainable seafood.
      The Marine Stewardship Council and Aquaculture Stewardship Council are two trustworthy organizations for those outside the USA. If you live in the US, the Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch has listings for sustainability.

      @@eklectiktoni I stopped eating sea food a long time ago, because of plastics, because of ocean devastation. I still eat fish, but I head into Canada, find a nice lake (with a license) and maybe near where a river meets the lake, catch some fresh fish, it's great.
