Trash is treasure? To one amazing volunteer diver who found cash during her Dive Against Debris with Stuart Cove Dive, Bahamas - that’s definitely true. However, marine debris is very rarely such an exciting find. In fact, it’s quite the opposite.

Divers like you and I know that the trash from our everyday lives, like plastic bags and food wrappers, as well as larger items like car batteries and enormous fishing nets are choking the ocean and taking a devastating toll on marine life too.

None of our trash belongs in the ocean. But the good news is, we can use our scuba skills for good and fight back against trash in the ocean.
