The popular island of Paros wants to become the first plastic waste-free island in the Mediterranean through the Clean Blue Alliance, an initiative of Common Seas, an organization that seeks the reduction of plastic waste and the plastics pollution in the sea, according to ANA.
Common Seas initiative, ‘Clean Blue Alliance,’ supports islands in accelerating their source-to-sea solutions, with the goal of eliminating plastic. The project is evidence-based and solutions-oriented as it identifies and supports local enterprises that reduce and reuse plastics.
Clean Blue Paros is empowering and supporting the residents of Paros and the island’s visitors, in order to deepen their understanding of their plastic ecosystem, as well as identify and invest in the solutions that will have the biggest impact in reducing the plastic items most commonly found in their seas. Together they will all support and contribute to a lasting reduction of plastic waste on the island.
