Description of Our Community: Baosheng community in Taoyuan County is located in Guanyin Township, Taoyuan County, southwest of the coastal area. According to the Community Development Outline, the main goal od development is to promote community development and residents' welfare, to establish peace, harmony, and solidarity of the modern community. The community held many activities to promote community residents’ awareness, such as Mother's Day, Dragon Boat Festival, Father's Day, Mid-Autumn Festival and so on. In 2005,CPC buried pipeline to excavate Millennium algal reef, destructing the original 20 km natural breakwater. The windbreaks, beefwood and some coastal plants fell and withered. From then on, Community residents understood the serious problem of the shorten coastline and encountered the destruction of its surrounding ecological habitats.

Project Description: Algal reefs are rare, and require a long time to accumulate to turn a large spectacular sight. In addition, algal reef provide the place for many biological species in the sea to depend on. If algal reefs have been destroyed, the creatures will lose an important place for them, so we can see the importance of conservation. Therefore, we hope to record the precious algal reefs resource by this project research and website construction. We would like to advocate the public to pay attention to the conservation of the algal reefs.
