Welcome to the underwater world of the Philippines

 Learn to dive. Travel the world. Conserve marine life.

An estimated 50-80% of all life on earth is found under the ocean surface and the oceans contain 99% of the living space on the planet. Less than 10% of that space has been explored by humans. Currently, scientists have named and successfully classified around 1.5 million species. (marinebio.org)

Air pollution is responsible for 33% of the toxic contaminants that end up in oceans and coastal waters. About 44% of the toxic contaminants come from runoff via rivers and streams.

Each year, three times as much rubbish is dumped into the world’s oceans as the weight of fish caught. Fish supply the greatest percentage of the world’s protein consumed by humans and most of the world’s major fisheries are being fished at levels above their maximum sustainable yield; some regions are severely overfished.

Now more than ever, our seas need our help.
