Divers enlisted to help save world’s oceans and seas under UN-backed project
United Nations - Snorkellers and scuba divers across the globe are being enlisted to help preserve the health and diversity of the world's oceans and seas under a new initiative supported by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP).
"Earthdive" urges professional and amateur divers to record findings on the marine environment - including coral reefs, mangrove swamps and coastal waters - on the initiative's web site, thereby contributing scientific data on key indicator species to build a "global dive log."
