    Hawaiian coral reefs and beaches are endangered due to various threats such as pollution, overfishing, ocean recreation, and global warming. Coral reefs support diverse underwater ecology, prevent erosion, and create white sand beaches, and are important to Hawaii's economy through tourism. Conservation efforts through groups like the Surfrider Foundation aim to address threats and protect these vital ecosystems through beach cleanups, education, and reducing chemical pollution, boats, vehicles, and runoff.
