A tiny startup with a big mission: it wants to find out what happens to coral reefs when they are threatened by climate change. The company has launched a stand up paddleboard to see how much pollution and sediment a reef can handle, and wants to combine this with data from satellites and drones. The startup also wants to restore coral reefs and is building a drone to do this. It plans to use this data to create predictive models of how reefs could react to climate change.
