Underwater trash pick-up program 🗑️🌊
I received my Dive Against Yellowtail certification card! 😃
The design is a sea turtle 🐢✨
The theme of this design card changes every year. The theme for 2024 is sea turtles, which have been greatly damaged by ghost gear (discarded fishing nets), which has become a problem in recent years.
The message of this card is not only to improve your diving skills, but also to raise awareness of marine conservation and the protection of marine life.
Thereare, if you wish to use this specially designed card instead of the usual certification card, you will need to pay a donation of at least 500 yen per unit to a non-profit environmental protection organization called the AWARE Foundation. The donations are used ♻️ for "shark and ray conservation" and "marine debris recovery activities"
In this activity, you don't just end up picking up trash!
We measure and classify the garbage we collect, and create data while discussing the causes and problems. This data is reported through PADI (the world's largest Scuba Diving educational institution) to researchers, environmental groups, and government agencies for analysis and action.
Diving is not just a leisure activity or picking up trash, but it is 💡 a valuable activity that allows you to think deeply about environmental issues and contribute to improvement through concrete data
Let's protect the future of the ocean together.

We can ✨✨ change the inside of the ocean with our own hands
