Scientists developed an innovative device that succumbs underwater and pours life back into coral reefs which are suffering dramatically due to climate change. The briefcase-size submersible is designed to move autonomously along damaged sections of reef, seeding them with hundreds of thousands of microscopic baby corals. If scaled up, the technology could be used to save the damaged reef systems afflicted by widespread coral bleaching caused by an alarming increase in global temperatures.
