She could no longer see beautful marine life and the seabed was covered with rubbish. She continued to worry about tho state of the marne environment and this motivated hor to study environmental engineering. While she ‘was studying at university, Swietenia “tried to find an orgarisation that was doing sometting to protect the marine environment around Thousand Islands. But tnore was nothing.

Two years later, the ‘cornmurity became a foundation known as Divers Clean Action (OCA. ‘They collected cata on marine waste and began to run workshops and training seesiors to reise public awareness of marine rubbish. They have also worked with people lving in coastal communities and showed them how they can recycle a Ict of marine waste. From being just a group of people who collected rubbish, DCA now employs 12 fulltime statf and has a network of 1,500 volurteers. ‘Swietenia's work in marine conservation has been recognised, Intemationaly. ‘Swiotenia “believes in the ablity of young people to get out and do ‘things make a change. 8, if! want to save the work, i's Scanned with CamScannerTHE WOMAN WHO REINVENTED > CHILDREN’S TV K th tne md-1960s, Ganz Cooney was workng as a producer of {twlevion documentary programmes in Amorica.
