Glass beach--coral reef is the natural shock absorber

A new glass beach--coral reef is the natural shock absorber. Coral reef can weaken the impact of the storm. Should we use the artificial glass reef to copy this function? Architect Mr. Matthew Baird said that the artificial glass reef would protect the low-lying areas around Staten Island, New Jersey and Beiyou. This kind glass reef use the recycled glass from the local places. This project won an additional environmental reputation.
