Alamo IDC divers finally made their first Dive Against Debris on Saturday, October 17, 2015.  Our first scheduled dive was cancelled due to red tide in Port Aransas a few weeks ago.  We collected trash at Canyon Lake in Texas which is a freshwater man-made lake used mostly for recreational uses such as boating, fishing, water skiing and diving.  We found many objects that did not belong in the lake such as a car door, car bumper, car roter, car tires and many, many beer cans. These trash items are perfect examples of human impact on a body of water due to these recreational activities.  Finding the car parts shows that people are under the impression that "out of sight, out of mind".  A body of water, especially the ocean, is thought of as a  big dumping site which is the mentality of people globally.  Now, after completing my first Dive Against Debris, I feel compelled to conduct more Dive Against Debris events.  I look forward to having an event in the Gulf of Mexico soon.
