Today's the Day! April 22: Dive In To Earth Day!
Here's another chance to get involved in local ocean conservation efforts. Organized by the the Coral Reef Alliance, headquartered in San Francisco, the weeklong call to activism doesn't require that you be a scuba diver to participate:
Any marine-related conservation activity will do, whether it's cleaning trash from a beach, installing a mooring buoy, or doing a presentation for your local club or school. Other examples include underwater clean-ups, fish and coral surveys, children's snorkeling trips, or just diving. As long as it helps the aquatic environment and takes place during the April Earth Day celebrations, it's a Dive In activity! Many of the Dive In activities focus on coral reefs, of which 32% may die in the next 30 years if destruction continues at the current rate.
