Companies come in, take all the sand, destroy the environment in the process by deepening these shallow water environments and driving away all the fish - leaving the local population destitute as the local government recieves the payout without them seeing a cent.
I’d rescue bees from the water back when I was a lifeguard at the end of the day :)
