Are you passionate about protecting Sardinia’s stunning coastline? Do you want to make a tangible difference in the fight against plastic pollution? What is the origin of plastic, and how can we tackle it effectively?
We invite you to join our “Plastic Fantastic” Webinar: Sardinia Edition, organized by the REMEDIES for Ocean program in collaboration with CNR (Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche), Venice Lagoon Plastic Free, University of Maribor, and Impact Hub Athens. This in-person and online seminar, to be held in Sardinia, Italy, will provide invaluable knowledge for anyone eager to understand and address the pressing issue of plastic pollution in their local community.
The webinar will offer a comprehensive exploration of plastic identification and management, designed by leading scientists and chemists who specialize in plastics and microplastics. Participants will gain insights into different types of plastics, their recyclability, and practical steps to become more conscious consumers. The content is tailored to Sardinia’s unique challenges and the specific actions being undertaken locally under the REMEDIES program. By focusing on scientific methods developed during REMEDIES, attendees will learn how to identify and categorize plastic waste effectively, ensuring that local clean-up activities are both impactful and data-driven.
This webinar is an opportunity to empower yourself with the knowledge and tools to become a local advocate for sustainable consumption. By attending, you will not only enhance your understanding of plastic pollution but also learn how to organize and participate in clean-up efforts that make a measurable impact. The session will conclude with an interactive discussion, allowing participants to engage directly with experts, clarify doubts, and connect with others who share a commitment to preserving Sardinia’s natural beauty and ecosystems.
