Pavones, a wave deep in one of the most biodiverse regions of the planet is slowly being damaged by high levels of fecal contamination, due to sewage runoff from homes, hotels, and businesses that do not have proper sewage treatment facilities.On top of this a recently approved tuna farm will polluted nearshore waters through the use of antibiotics and other industrial effluents used in the fish cages and farms. Not only would this threaten the already endangered population of Tuna by capturing them out at sea and transporting them to feeding cages, but it would also destroy the thriving local ecosystem. The project would also put local fishermen out of jobs, therefor it is important that everyone works together to try and hinder the building of this farm. Save the Waves Coalition is working hard to combat this problem.
