Last Friday, on the 4th of June, in the All-Atlantic 2021 conference that took place from the 2nd to the 4th of this month, Futurismo had the pleasure of collaborating with Expolab – Centro de Ciência Viva, in carrying out the Plastic Pirates Azores activity Campaign – Connecting Atlantic Ministers & Youth. Watch the video about Plastic Pirates Azores Campaign.

This activity aimed to connect Ministers and young people, to strengthen scientific collaboration between Europe and also countries whose greatest common asset is our Atlantic Ocean.

Encouraging the involvement of citizens and scientists by raising environmental awareness was the goal of the day. Students, professors and members of the scientific community collected macro, meso and micro-plastic, as well as phytoplankton, which were collected at different points in the marina of Portas do Mar, in Ponta Delgada.

Once finished, they were examined in benches organized. It was, if there is any doubt, an educational and exciting afternoon, in the company of students from Domingos Rebelo School.

One foot in the Present and the other in the Future. May this and many more future cooperations remain strong for the greater cause of protection and good management of natural resources, so that life on our planet may be extended to the fullest extent of its splendor!
