Ποιοί είμαστε – DeepBlue Project

Konstantinos Fourlas

I am a student of Mechanical Engineering at the University of West Attica. I was always keen on taking part in social activities, and I love to protect the environment, so I have participated in several environmental activities from a young age. My vision is to impart my enthusiasm to as many people as possible, because altogether we can do so much more!

George Kontogiannis

I am a pensioner bank executive. I love the sea, so I have pursued windsurfing, sailing and power-driven vessels. I am sensitized around environmental issues, though abstain from extreme activism views, because I believe that environmental protection should become a way of life.

His experience in well-organised publicity campaign of the actions of Deep Blue Project is very valuable since he believes in the millennial motto: "Photo, or it didn't happen"

Since 1993, he is engaged in electromechanical applications, with the purpose of SAVING ENERGY. He is engaged in Deep Blue project, because he is concerned about the environment that will be bestowed to the next generations.

Student of Computer Science in the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens. He loves the sea and the nature from a young age. He is responsible for our social media management, our website and he is also our photographer!

It’s a dirty job…

Yeah, "it's a dirty-job". But, as the motto says, "somebody has to do it". We do it! We clean where some people pollute, because when we ask ourselves the question "if not us, then who?", the answer is "probably no one".

Setting an example

Anyone who has taken part in cleaning up public spaces, especially if they have dived deeply to catch that car tire that will otherwise stay there - probably forever, will never ever throw any trash into the sea. Or anywhere else. Because only through personal experience do we truly understand how easy it is to destroy, and how infinitely more difficult it is to restore.

The sea is our home

Even if we do not have fins, and scales, and gills. Especially for Greece, with over 15,000 kilometers of coastline, with no point in the territory to be further than 137 kilometers away (not even an hour and a half!) from a beach, really, how could it not be? The sea is our home. And our home must shine.
