GO-GREEN Activity with the CRAM

  • 30 November, 2022

Last Friday, November 25th, BEST employees went to the CRAM (Center for the Conservation and Recovery of Marine Animals) for an activity to clean up the beach of El Prat de Llobregat. In just an hour, we collected 2,2 kilos of waste such as micro plastics and cigarette butts. Afterwards, we were given an explanatory talk about the damage caused by this waste to marine animals in the Mediterranean. To end the morning, we then went to see the turtles, weighing over 100 kg, that are being treated at the centre and were told the stories on how they ended up in the centre.
