Backstory
The first time Rafael Teixeira saw a coral reef, he was eight years old, visiting the coast of Brazil with his family. The vibrant colors and teeming life beneath the surface captivated him, igniting a lifelong passion. Years later, he chose to leave his comfortable life in São Paulo to study the Great Barrier Reef, driven by a desire to protect these fragile ecosystems. Rafael keeps a secret journal, filled with sketches and notes about the reefs, documenting both their beauty and their decline. He carries a small piece of bleached coral in his pocket, a grim reminder of the environmental challenges he faces.
