An excellent initiative!!
In Porto Heli, the local community seems to understand the negative footprint of tourism since they actively participated in our efforts to highlight the problem that was well hidden, for over 20 years, at the sea bottom. Through our clean ups in two harbors and the recovery of ghost nets from reefs, we introduced our work in the area, mapped polluted underwater zones and discussed with key partners.
A big thank you for the unique hospitality and support to the local authorities, the Association of Friends of Portoheli and all the involved actors.
Tourism footprint is obvious!!
