“Sometime in the next few months, work crews are expected to begin spelling â€SAVE THE REEFS†in block letters up to eight feet tall in water 30 feet deep.
The letters will be formed by 13,000 circular modules of concrete and limestone — each weighing about 700 pounds — anchored eight feet below the ocean floor to withstand major storms. The entire message is expected to take up an area the size of 40 football fields.
When completed people flying out of Miami International Airport will be able to see `SAVE OUR REEFS’ on the bottom of the ocean on a good, clear day.”
