'Into The Green Blue' - our new CD Rom is launched
The Green Blue launched its latest tool to promote environmental messages to boaters with their brand new ‘Into The Green Blue’ CD-Rom at Southampton Boat Show this year.
The new CD-Rom is designed to give training centres and clubs more resources to help teach kids and young adults the importance of environmental issues whilst on and around the water.
Yachting journalist and recent Green Blue convert, Tom Cunliffe, joined the team to celebrate the launch. Tom said: “The ocean isn’t a big as we all like to think. If we continually throw waste in to our waters there will come a point when it is overrun with rubbish.
“If we do nothing to clean up, others will, and those others will come in the form of tougher legislation.”
Jam-packed with information and exciting features including, virtual boats and interactive games, the CD-Rom includes testimonials from various boating figure heads and ambassadors such as Dee Caffari and Mike Golding. It also includes facts and figures about the scale of environmental issues and a plethora of learning resources. The CD Rom boasts a well stocked library of material for schools and clubs to use to help highlight important environmental issues.
Tom went on to say: “The Green Blue is doing an excellent job to promote and highlight environmental issues in the boating world. The CD-Rom is their best tool so far and is loads of fun for kids and grown-ups too. You’ll love it.”
Sarah Black, The Green Blue Project Manager, comments “This new CD Rom is a fun and exciting way to tell people about what they can do to minimise their impact while out on the water. It is really designed for training schools and clubs and the activities and games we have put together are both fun and informative, hopefully for everyone from young kids’ right through to adults!
