Which brand gives back to the dive community the most?

[Dunx]

As a diver I want to use my (albeit small) spending power to support brands that give back to the dive community and support organizations that are working towards helping the worlds oceans (Sea Save, Shark Savers, Manta Ray of Hope etc.) I've basically narrowed down my choices of a new regulator/BC to either Mares or Aqua Lung - both great models - so I've decided, instead of flipping a coin, to see if I can find any info on what programs these companies support. Does anyone have any info on this? thanks.

Mares supports the "Cool the Earth" organization to combat global warming:
Partner: Environment - Sales Network - Mares

Aqua Lung backs a few different organizations:
Eco-support

Check out the links and make your decision, personally I like Mares gear better.

Ah thanks, those were the links I couldn't seem to find

I ended up going with a Mares reg and a Scubapro BCD

thanks
