Blue Oceans Offers FREE Programs to Both Divers and Training Centers to Further Ocean Conservation

In a world where plastic is king, vehicles pump out air pollutants daily, runoff from land carries pollution to every waterway, and an island of trash floats ominously in the middle of the Pacific, it is hard to imagine how a single person can possibly make a difference. While saving our oceans seems like a daunting task, there are several things every person can do to help. SSI’s Blue Oceans provides the perfect starting point for divers, dive centers, and even non-divers to incorporate ocean conservation methods in their daily lives. As a diver, the importance of doing all you can to protect the underwater world is not only important to you, but for future divers ahead of you. Learn what Blue Oceans is doing to educate training centers and dive enthusiasts on protecting and preserving our ocean home.
