DRIVEN BY THE OCEAN

Paul4Sharks turned a Porsche Taycan into a rolling ambassador for the ocean: wrapped in the two faces of the reef, alive and destroyed, built to reach people marine conservation has never touched before. The roadshow is rolling, and the ocean-Taycan goes on tour across Europe!

100% of donations raised through HAI-PERFORMANCE: Scan & Protect directly support Coral Gardeners' coral reef restoration work.

HAI-PERFORMANCE is an independent initiative and not affiliated with Porsche AG.

 
 
 

WHY CORAL REEFS?

Coral reefs shelter a quarter of all marine life, protect coastlines, and feed hundreds of millions of people – yet half of the world's corals have died since the 1950s.

And reefs cannot survive without sharks: as the ocean's keystone species they keep reefs healthy and resilient, but more than 100 million sharks are killed every year – protecting sharks and rebuilding reefs is therefore one mission!


The good news: reefs can recover. Coral Gardeners grows heat-resilient corals and outplants them onto degraded reefs – giving damaged ecosystems a second chance.

ABOUT HAI-PERFORMANCE: Scan & Protect

People protect what they love – and they love what they have truly experienced. HAI-PERFORMANCE: Scan & Protect by Paul4Sharks (a play on the German "Hai" for shark) turns that idea into motion: the Taycan shows the ocean's tipping point, one side alive, one side destroyed – it turns heads, opens conversations, and the QR code on the hood leads straight from wonder to action on the campaign website!

Join us: the roadshow is rolling across Europe – and every donation helps rebuild the reef. Scan – Learn – Protect. FOR THE OCEAN!
