Comments and Feedback
We were so excited to use for the first time the collection bags from our new partner at “Trsh Bg”.
The event was organized by Abyss Ocean World and Easy Divers Bali (Pemuteran). We planned a Dive Against Debris with 8 divers which refers to the data reported. At the same event we also organized a beach clean up with 2 snorkels and 3 people collecting garbage from the shore; the data is not accounted for this report but 25kg were removed from the shore.
