In early April, Luca, a tourist from Italy, encountered a group of volunteers preparing for a seabed clean-up in Dongshan Bay, Dapeng New District, while he was sightseeing and recording the beautiful sea views with his GoPrO camera.

They were volunteers from a charity event called “Dive for Love” dedicated to marine coral reef conservation in Dapeng New District.

Seeing the volunteers adeptly put on their outfits and check their gear, Luca decided to focus his camera lens on them and record the whole process of this clean-up action.

27-year-old Jing Jiaying, a member of the Communist Party of China and an active member in “Dive for Love,”introduced Luca to the action and the environmental protection efforts she and her teammateshave been devoted to.

According to Jing, every weekend volunteers dive into the bottom of the sea to conduct coral reef inspection to assess the area, species and growth situations of coral reefs, in a bid to make protection plans and better conserve coral reefs.

Born and raised in Shenzhen, Jing has a natural love for the ocean. In 2017 Jing took part in a running event organized by “Dive for Love” and she decided to join the group to protect the ocean. Shortly after the event, Jing obtained a diving certificate and became a proud volunteer for coral reef protection and seabed clean-up.

“I’ve always appreciated the great inclusiveness of Shenzhen and its superb green environment. Now I know people like these volunteers should get the credit,” Luca said, adding that he was deeply moved by what these young people were doing and he would share their stories with his friends.
