Water TV Channel launches on World Ocean Day

H2o TV, a dynamic and unique Water Television Channel, was recently launched via a dedicated website on June 8 2004, World Ocean Day.
The channel is the world's first to focus purely on water. All of H2o TV's content will be concerned and connected with water and water-based activities such as sailing, surfing, swimming, diving and more - including environmentally sensitive subjects to do with water.
The ethos of the company is to represent water in various ways to the world and highlight its importance on a global scale. It will be on the Internet for at least a year - as it builds its programme portfolio, branding and business to business relationships.
H2o TV based in Cornwall will feature a strong presence in Plymouth, Devonand plans are underway for the Water Channel to launch on a digital platform in the summer of 2005.
Danny Bamping, Managing Director of H2o TV, said: "This is an opportunity for us to support the strong and talented Media sector and combine with the Marine Organisations to utilise the locations and proposed programme content that we have here in the south west.
"70% of the Earth is water, indeed 70% of us - is water... yet through the media at any level it does not have a single source of education or entertainment. H2o TV - will deliver this information through Digital Interactive TV - but also via other methods such as the Internet and also possibly digital radio.
"The merger of the TV and the Internet is imminent - and H2o TV The Water Channel will be a prepared for this in every way.
”One of our first phases of operation H2o TV is to produce a Media and Marine Directory. This will prove to be a valuable product for both sectors as it will be produced into a quality published book and electronically the database will be accessible via H2o TV's website - bringing together and representing the sectors on a wider scale - and making sure the information provided is relevant and up-to-date.”
