Have been a Dive Professional for over 2 decades. Working at PADI as PADI Regional Manager of Region 12. Not a conservation "extremist" but believe that there is so much we as Divers can do to help the Ocean Environment. 

A strong follower of the Famous Native American proverb

"Treat the earth well: it was not given to you by your parents,
it was loaned to you by your children.
We do not inherit the Earth from our Ancestors,
we borrow it from our Children."
