Atolls, such as those in French Polynesia, are coral islands that encircle a lagoon partially or completely. Their formation is a slow geological process that begins with a volcanic island surrounded by coral reefs. Over millions of years, the volcanic island sinks, leaving a ring of growing coral reefs and a central lagoon. Atolls are significant not only for their breathtaking beauty but also for their ecological importance. They support a rich variety of marine life, providing habitat for countless species of fish, birds, and coral. As climate change impacts sea levels and ocean temperatures, the preservation of atolls is crucial for the protection of these unique ecosystems.
