The EcoSurf Project need your help
by Carina Perkins
06/10/2006:// Do you know of a surf company that is making big strides to help the environment?
Perhaps you even own or work for one?
The EcoSurf Project (www.ecosurproject.org) needs to hear from you!
They are currently compiling a publication featuring all the surf related-companies and organisations that are involved in environmental work, that make more eco-friendly surf products or who are taking big steps to reduce their own impact on the environment.
‘The Green Surf Guide 2007’ will feature a complete directory of all of these companies, plus articles on eco-surf topics, interviews with green surf pioneers and much more. If you think that you know of a company or organisation that should be featured in the Guide, then drop them an email at hello@thegreensurfguide.com.
If they feature your suggestion they will send you out a free copy as soon as it is printed! They are looking for surfing organisations, shops, shapers, clothing companies, accessories manufacturers, surf-camps, hostels/accommodation – anything. As long as they are making a serious effort to minimise their ecological footprint or help the environment in some way they want to hear about them.
