SACSCUBA Dive for Earth Day continued at HURRICANE BAY LAKE TAHOE. We will be making a Splash
Lake Tahoe, CA– This 21st day, 2009 June, SACSCUBA and community volunteers will join in the action for Project AWARE Foundation’s global Dive for Earth Day events continuation. More than 300 collective events will take place in over 100 countries around the world and SACSCUBA will make a local splash for this conservation celebration.
Join SACSCUBA hikers, bikers, walkers, divers and snorkel volunteers to keep Lake Tahoe clean. Let’s start the summer off right! We will be meeting at 9am. Please stop by Sacramento Scuba World, Sacramento or Fisheye Scuba, Folsom.
Each year, divers and water enthusiasts worldwide make a splash for water conservation in partnership with Project AWARE, a nonprofit organization dedicated to underwater conservation. This year events include shoreline and underwater cleanups, coral reef surveys, AWARE Kids projects, mooring buoy installations and more.
Please contact: John Day at SACSCUBA to take action for our Earth Day continuation this year. We really need folks to help on the shore, bike path and bushes.
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.
This year SACSCUBA decided to keep up the effort and add a Local clean-up at Hurricane Bay Lake Tahoe.
Project AWARE Foundation is a registered nonprofit organization dedicated to conserving underwater environments through education, advocacy and action. www.projectaware.org.

I do however agree that it makes little sense to force American companies to go Green when countries like China, India and Russia will not abide by environmental treaties. This is the reason Bush refused to sign the Kyoto Protocol...why should we intentionally place American companies at a disadvantage? Its bad enough that Americans are forced to compete in a global labor market with people that make $2 dollars a day. Until these countries can be brought in line, there is little that Americans can do to stop global warming (If global warming is a true threat...I however would err on the side that it is a real threat unless proven otherwise.) But all the lefty's want to do is scream about America... why don't the neo-liberals go picket the consulates of these other countries? Why don't we see a concerted effort by the Left to boycott their products unless they conform to environmental standards? Typical hypocrisy and same old anti Americanism.
