SEA-Inside Pacific Northwest is a TV program available on public access stations around the PNW. SEA-Inside: PNW's focus is to take viewers on a half-hour video journey to see what lives under the waters of the Pacific Northwest.
"SEA-Inside: PNW is setting a new standard for underwater video that is not only excellent photography, but offers scientific context so it has far more value than just 'pretty underwater pictures'."
--Chuck Boland, filmmaker, Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife
Episode 4, in particular, has a 14 minute segment about the Hood Canal dissolved oxygen situation. The video footage and similar info was used by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife to highlight the issues our local waters are facing in regards to Low-Oxygen levels. Click here for that press release and video link. I forwarded this link to some people involved with the West Coast Governors’ Agreement on Ocean Health.

It's Winter time - you know you're a diver when you're scraping ice off your windshield INSIDE your vehicle...!

I'd love to see this same sort of thing done by divers throughout the States (elsewhere too) to help introduce non-divers to the underwater world and the critters there that need our protection. I'm trying to do it in the SoCal area and I know others who are doing it in New England. Think globally, act locally (except when on an exotic dive trip).
