Dive for Earth Day with the Costa Maya’s Tourism Business Association

Mahahual, México – 22nd to 27th April 2008.

The Costa Maya’s Tourism Business Association and community volunteers will join in the action for Project AWARE Foundation’s global Dive for Earth Day events. More than 235 collective events will take place in 60 countries around the world and we will make a local splash for this conservation celebration.

Each year, during the week of 22 April, divers and water enthusiasts worldwide make a splash for water conservation in partnership with Project AWARE, a nonprofit organization dedicated to underwater conservation. Earth Day began in the United States on 22 April 1970 to raise the status of environmental issues to the global stage. In 2000, Project AWARE began to help dive volunteers put aquatic issues on the Earth Day map. Since that time thousands of divers in 115 countries around the world have helped protect underwater environments and educate local communities each April.

Our Association will organize various events in Mahahual during this week: coral reef workshops and presentations for adults, AWARE Kids projects including school presentations, snorkeling and diving. The highlight of this week will be on Sunday the 27th with a local reef and beach cleanup. 

Join and act with us on the 27th of April 2008 to celebrate Earth Day!
