Wildlife, 'ghost nets,' and a wrecked WW2 sub
These divers are taking abandoned fishing nets
covering a British submarine
that sank in 1941
Location: Kafalonia, Greece
Lost fishing gear known as "ghost nets"
often turn into death traps for marine life
Volunteers dived about 160 feet
to reach the sub
HMS Perseus
one of the biggest submarines of World War Two
The cleanup mission also focuses
on other wrecks in the area
The nets recovered will be regenerated
along with other nylon waste
//into socks, swimwear, and carpets//
