In case your reaction was… ” What???” The answer is: “Well, yes, we at MeP are blown away too!”
We are thrilled to announce that the British band Depeche Mode, in collaboration with the luxury watch brand Hublot, are joining our fight against plastic pollution in Menorca by donating over 85,000€ to Menorca Preservation via their amazing collaboration with the Conservation Collective, the network of foundations of which we are part. These funds will go entirely to reinforce the actions that we are carrying out from our Plastic Free Menorca Alliance.
What are we going to do thanks to their support?
Continue to carry out awareness-raising actions that focus on the huge environmental impact of plastic pollution on our environments, as well as continue to inform the public and the business sector on best practices and how we can contribute to reducing plastic pollution on our island.
Increase the number of businesses and organisations committed to reducing the use of single-use plastic in their establishments through our Plastic Free certifications.
Expand the network of reuse points for beach items by installing 10 new points in selected touristic establishments and beaches, and thus expanding the actions offered within 0 Plastic Menorca‘s “0 Plastic Experiences”.
Strengthen our PescArt Menorca initiative, focused on upcycling discarded fishing nets.
