https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vRZlESe7hkQ&ab_channel=Mongabay
Once a nursery for marine life, Guanabara Bay in Rio de Janeiro is now dying from the dumping of thousands of liters of sewage into its waters; artisanal fishermen now survive by picking up the garbage that floats in the bay.

A fishing #corral in #GuanabaraBay being rebuilt. New corals are not permitted, so the existing ones must be maintained. They form a #spiral and the fish get trapped in the interior of the spiral.

The back of the bay that Rio sits on is surrounded by mangrove forest. Some very taken by floating garbage, some almost pristine.
