<div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">How aware are surfers of their own environmental impact on the ocean?</div><div style="text-align: justify;">How much do surfers know about their ability to effect positive change on the ocean in everyday life?</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">These are very important questions. To answer them, we've created a scientific survey with Dr. Greg Borne of the Plymouth Sustainability and Surfing Research Group, and the Scripps Institution of Oceanography.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">This is important because we need a better understanding of how people relate to the ocean in their daily lives. This helps us grow the community of people who will take direct action to protect ocean health.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">So please take five minutes and take the Deep Blue Survey. As a special prize, one random person will win a free <strong>Slater Designs</strong> ECOBOARD of your choice. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Follow this link to: </div><div><strong><a href="http://www.surveygizmo.com/s3/2743935/Deep-Blue-Survey" target="_blank">TAKE THE DEEP BLUE SURVEY</a></strong></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The winner of the Slater Designs surfboard will be chosen this Friday, <strong>January 19th</strong>.
