Changing the world - Wicked Diving in our community - Recycling program


After a day of cleaning beaches and all the rubbish we found - Wicked Diving and our Divemaster Trainee's took the next logical step.

Instead of just getting angry, or simply complaining - we went out and tried to make a difference.

Filip, Sarah, Annette and Bernie were to do an educational presentation at the School (a program we sponsor)


They chose to talk about recycling and the impact rubbish makes on our environment (above and below the water).


They talked about how long it takes for different kinds of rubbish to break down, why throwing away plastic bags is a bad idea and different ways to actually do recycling in their own lives.





They also gave a few items as gifts - including two bins to collect recycleable materials.













Wicked Diving is very proud of our efforts to improve our community, and this is just one step towards a better future. We hope all these kids walk away with a little bit of the information we put forth and try to make a difference in their community.


Simple steps can help lead to a better world.
