What we do?
A national campaign against sea waste, was driven by the fact that Croatia has not yet developed a model of monitoring and disposing of waste in the sea. Since the sea is an incredibly valuable resource for the Croatian economy, the campaign's aim was to raise citizens’ and tourists' awareness of the problem and point to the need to establish an efficient and sustainable model for waste management in the Adriatic
"The aim of the ‘Blue Bag’ project is to get every sailor to collect at least one bag of waste during the season. Tourists, as well as the locals, will thus be provided with clean beaches where they can spend their summer days while we show them our ecological awareness and environmental care.
Since 80 percent of waste from the sea comes from the beaches and shores (and the remaining 20 percent from ships in maritime transport and fishing), it is extremely necessary to implement preventive programs and actions, such as the Blue Bag project.
My student and me went to France(Nice), on the Meeting of the young people of the Mediterannean to present the project.
Why we do it?
We do the Blue Bag project as one of many environmental projects which implements particular consciouss about environmental program.We are supporters and lovers of nature who encourage a clean coast.
