Raul will be part of this unit too. He is a professional diver, now in the Philippines, waiting for your questions. He is extremely nice so feel free to ask him anything about what he does or how he started. I would also like to tell you that he makes this as his personal project and as a commitment to the sea he loves and uses his own money to pay for the extraction expeditions. A real example. We are really fortunate to have him collaborate on this unit. You can use these questions as part of your research.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1405\" src=\"http:\/\/eidersuso.net\/design\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/20200212_225019-1024x1024.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" srcset=\"http:\/\/eidersuso.net\/design\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/20200212_225019-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/eidersuso.net\/design\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/20200212_225019-300x300.jpg 300w, http:\/\/eidersuso.net\/design\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/20200212_225019-150x150.jpg 150w, http:\/\/eidersuso.net\/design\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/20200212_225019-768x768.jpg 768w, http:\/\/eidersuso.net\/design\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/20200212_225019-210x210.jpg 210w, http:\/\/eidersuso.net\/design\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/20200212_225019.jpg 1196w\" alt=\"\" width=\"720\" height=\"720\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If you are interested in learning more about the organization you can visit their\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ghostfishing.org\/uk\/\">website.\u00a0<\/a>Or watch this introductory video to the problem.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"'Ghost' fishing gear: the trash haunting ocean wildlife | AFP\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/YahFnGf51e4?feature=oembed\" width=\"720\" height=\"405\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We often mention the importance of doing things for the environment.
