SUSTAINABLE DANUBE PROJECT!
Romania has a great and underestimated tresure, the Danube Delta.
It is important for everybody to take care of such a wonderful and fundamental ecosystem, with our daily behaviour.
Unfortunately, this is not a theme that is often discussed within the media mainstream and in the public debate.
That is why our team is working on a challanging project, that is called
<< The Danube Assault >>
The idea is to build a boat made by recycled bottles that will sail on the delta of Danube from Tulcea
to Sfantu Gheorghe, pulling a big kite bringing the main slogan of sustainability:
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle.
Our goals are to promote sustainable development and sustainable lifestyle, to raise the environmental pollution question on the public debate,
to promote sustainable turism and to contribute to show the world that a fantastic ecosystem is in danger for human behaviours

Collecting point
We have been collecting bottles all week for our Danube Delta project. People in the street were not very willing to leave their bottles at the stand but we are planning new ways to reach our target of around 500 bottles. Right now we have all of these you can see in the picture!
Please contact us if you have any to give us! Multumim.
