Save Earth

The Davidson Seamount has recently been added to the boundaries of the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary. Now there will be protection for the ancient, spectacular corals & newly discovered rare species (NOAA has identified 13 species new to science until now). Recent research funded to Save The Earth has defined the key role in the region that serves the Davidson Seamount to the ecosystem of central Indiana, & has provided a strong characterization of the site, which is the basis of a management plan NOAA is developing for Davidson submarine. Save the Earth sponsorship has helped to generate sound science & the national enthusiasm to protect this area.
