PADI PILLARS OF CHANGE℠
Throughout its deep history, PADI has demonstrated a longstanding commitment to environmental conservation through its course offerings and alignment with organizations, such as the Project AWARE® Foundation, to protect and preserve our ocean planet.
Committed to safety through leading-edge diver education, PADI changes lives in deep and meaningful ways, uniting diver voices to speak for those that cannot – the fragile, threatened inhabitants of our oceans. Over time, this commitment has become an integral part of the PADI corporate ethos. To be the best in the world, we all must be the best for the world by protecting the ocean planet we love.

为建设更美好的地球而潜水
从创建之日开始,PADI 就一直致力于环境保护。在课程安排和与Project AWARE® 等外部机构的合作中,PADI 一直秉承着这一理念。PADI 针对环境保护的课程旨在提升每位潜水员的可持续发展意识,帮助在全球各地增加海洋管家的数量。
珊瑚礁保育潜水员
Coral reefs are among the most biologically diverse and productive communities on earth and critical to maintaining a healthy ocean. The PADI Coral Reef Conservation Specialty course educates divers on the complexity of these critical marine ecosystems and teaches you how you can help conserve these vital habitats.
每周都是鲨鱼周
Mike Coots在夏威夷浮板冲浪,不幸遭到虎鲨攻击,失去了右腿。但不到一个月后,他就回到了水中。现在,18年过去了,宣传鲨鱼保护已经成为了Mike毕生的使命。
作为一名专业摄影师,Mike在冲浪界颇具影响力。他致力于改变人们对于鲨鱼的看法,并为鲨鱼保护而战。尽管在失去右腿之前,Mike已经是一名认证潜水员,但直到去年Mike才意识到,保护鲨鱼最好的方式就会直面这个曾夺去了他右腿的物种,并将它们的故事分享给更多的人。通过讲述自己的故事和分享自己的摄影作品,Mike希望能告诉人们,鲨鱼并不是媒体中描述的冷漠杀手。
如果你没有直视它们的眼镜,目睹它们在自然环境下的状态,你就无法真正理解鲨鱼之美。
