Laura James has donated footage to “Voices of the Strait” and to People For Puget Sound’s “Sound and Vision” video (Both are well worth seeing!). While not directly a Peninsula news piece, maybe we can see if other dive teams can start a contest to see who can clean up the most underwater junk off our shores!

Laura James loves Puget Sound. She’s an avid diver but was disgusted by what she saw beneath the surface. James took it upon herself to become a one woman clean-up crew. "I’ve been able to remove about 1,100 pounds of lead from the Sound," she says proudly.
Half a ton of junk removed from Elliott Bay by West Seattle diver http://www.king5.com/community/making-a-difference/Sea-garbage-removed-from-Elliott-Bay-by-West-Seattle-woman-142869095.html
