A giant board game, which will teach you how to recycle, will pass, from next Monday, June 17th, on the beaches of the Algarve.
The initiative will start on the beach of Monte Gordo, and on the following days at Pescadores beach (18th) and Salgados beach (19th), both in the municipality of Albufeira.
In Meia Praia, on Thursday, the 20th, it is still not confirmed.
This action will always take place from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm, challenging children and young people.
The “Recicla Mania”, which in its first edition had the participation of approximately 2 thousand young people, will again provide unforgettable moments of conviviality and sharing, with the little ones being able to test what they know about recycling.
“Where does the plastic from cereal bars go?”, “What is the order of the 3 R's?” or “Do you know what happens to packages when they are placed in the ecopoint?” are some of the questions that will be asked to those who accept this challenge from Sociedade Ponto Verde.
Unlike traditional games, “Recycle Mania” has the specificity of making children and young people the true pawns of the game, moving until they reach the goal. After throwing the dice, they move forward through the different boxes, which have the colors of the ecopoints (green, blue and yellow), where, in some, questions will be asked and doubts clarified.
For Sociedade Ponto Verde's Marketing & Communication coordinator, «young people are the influencers of the future and 'Recicla Mania' is currently one of our main actions to approach younger age groups».
«We know that raising awareness continues to be very important for packaging to be recycled more and better and, therefore, we want to take advantage of the summer period to be with the children and young people who will enjoy the beach at this time of year, reinforcing that we must recycle wherever we are. Through this game, we teach about packaging recycling in a fun way and encourage the correct use of ecopoints, equipment that is also already found in these places», concludes Ricardo Sacoto Lagoa.
