Lagos will promote, in September and October, several cleaning actions in the municipality.
The beaches of Porto de Mós and Meia Praia, the coastal area of Ponta da Piedade and the urban perimeter of Odiáxere will be the intervention areas.
The cleaning actions in Lagos will take place on the 21st of September, National Beach Cleaning Day, at 9:00 am, with an initiative of #LitterHero Lagos, at Porto de Mós Beach. With the support of the Oceano Azul Foundation, this initiative aims to mobilize volunteers, groups, associations, NGOs and movements that want to participate in cleaning up marine debris.
Then, on the 24th, the LPN – League for the Protection of Nature promotes a cleaning action in Meia Praia, as part of the “Let's Clean up Our Beaches” campaign, of the Amar o Mar project, now in its 3rd edition. The meeting point for the activity is next to the Barrigada Restaurant at 9:30 am.
Similar to what was done in 2018 at Meia Praia, the Municipality organizes a new action to remove and clean the willow, this time near the farol from Ponta da Piedade, between 10:00 and 12:1 on XNUMX October.
The initiative is part of the Environmental Volunteer Education and Initiatives Week – SEIVA 2019, carried out by the Portuguese Environment Agency, and aims to intervene in places with a high concentration of this plant.
The action will have the support of the Centro Ciência Viva de Lagos, Associação A Rocha, Intermarché de Lagos and Ecoambiente. Throughout the morning, gifts will be offered to participants, as well as pizzas cooked in an oven with energy from the Sun in a solar snack that will raise awareness of the importance of using renewable energy.
For registration, you can send an email to [email protected] until the next 27th of September.
On October 13th, it will be Odiáxere's turn to enter into environmental activities with an action to clean up the interior of the parish's urban perimeter, more specifically along its secondary roads.
The initiative will take place from 7:00 am at Largo da Alegria (near Moinho) and will count on the participation of the group of residents and friends of Vila de Odiáxere and the support of the Parish Council and local businesses.
