Our first dive took place on April 30th, and since then we have carried out <strong>9 major cleaning days<\/strong>. Most of the debris we have cleared has been fishing line which is entangled on our inshore reefs within our National Park. But we\u2019ve also been removing larger debris and a wide range of other ocean plastics. This year, our divers are also planning on <strong>helping to maintain the NPA coral nursery<\/strong> at the entrance to English Harbour.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ABOT has been fortunate to have established a wonderful group of over 40 volunteer divers&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":1910,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1909","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/abocean.org\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1909","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/abocean.org\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/abocean.org\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/abocean.org\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/abocean.org\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1909"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/abocean.org\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1909\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3494,"href":"https:\/\/abocean.org\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1909\/revisions\/3494"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/abocean.org\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1910"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/abocean.org\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1909"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/abocean.org\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1909"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/abocean.org\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1909"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
