This Earth Day, we were thrilled to collaborate with Xiaomi, a global leader in technology, to promote environmental sustainability and marine conservation. Recognizing the urgent need for collective action to address climate change and protect our oceans, PADI and Xiaomi joined forces to make a meaningful impact.
PADI + Xiaomi = A Shared Vision for Sustainability
As climate change continues to affect ecosystems worldwide, PADI is dedicated to fostering environmental stewardship through proactive initiatives.
On Earth Day 2024 (April 22nd), we participated in our second collaboration with Xiaomi, inviting Xiaomi Fans from around the globe to participate in marine conservation activities. In Thailand and Malaysia, we also organized beach cleanup events where participants, guided by PADI Instructors, collected 40kg (88 lbs) of marine debris. One participant reflected, “Participating in this beach cleanup was a profound experience, making me contemplate the impact of waste on our marine environment.”
#ShoringupwithXiaomi
To extend the reach of this activation, Xiaomi also launched the #ShoringupwithXiaomi campaign, encouraging users worldwide to share ocean-related photos and stories on social media. This initiative aims to raise awareness about the importance of marine conservation and inspire individuals to become Torchbearers for our oceans.
Eddie Huang, Country Manager for Xiaomi Malaysia and Singapore, expressed his enthusiasm for the initiative, “In collaboration with PADI, the event marks a significant step towards ocean conservation. It’s inspiring to witness our Xiaomi fans coming together to make a positive impact on our planet.”
Yan Lou, President of PADI China, echoed this sentiment, “Celebrating this collaborative effort with Xiaomi underscores our shared commitment to environmental stewardship and the protection of our oceans.”
