Pascal van Erp
FEW WORDS ABOUT PASCAL
Pascal is a GUE trained technical diver with a strong preference for wreck diving. He made hundreds of dives all over the world, during these dives, he encountered lost- and abandoned fishing gear and the sad and severe consequences for the life under water.
Since he is co-founder of a Dutch North Sea cleanup project in 2009 he became driven by the removal of lost gear in the North Sea. Based on his experience and specific vision on diving operations related to environmental issues, Pascal decided in 2012 to dedicate his diving exclusively to environmental protection and started the Ghost Fishing Foundation — an international non-profit executed by volunteer technical divers which initiates, supports and promotes lost fishing gear removal initiatives.
They often collaborate with other organizations like Healthy Seas, Greenpeace and World Animal Protection preferrably with the help of one of the rapidly expanding local Ghost Diving chapters in nearly every corner of the world.
