The event applied sustainability principles
The event applied sustainable practices again this year, contributing to the protection of the environment. In particular, Navarino Challenge collaborated for another year with PHEE, a start-up company that has developed an innovative technology for the reuse of a range of vegetable waste, for the manufacture of bio composite panels, with commercial applications in architecture, furniture, and also in utilitarian objects. This year Navarino Challenge innovated again, as it was the first event in the world to give participants a medal made from recycled Poseidonia leaves, while the prizes given to the honorary awards were made from PHEE’s new material, based on espresso coffee waste. Participants were gifted with coPHEE coasters produced from coffee waste from Pylos coffee shops. At the same time, this year’s program included the cleaning of the beach of Gialova powered by MOTODYNAMICS Cleaning Team with the participation of the ambassadors of SIXT, member of the MOTODYNAMICS Group, Antigoni Ntrismpioti and Emmanouil Karalis, in collaboration with Moraitis Watersports and the volunteers of the University of Piraeus. But the actions did not stop here as the children were introduced to the principles of sustainability. The individual bottles of the athletes were offered by Europa in a recyclable bag, applying a zero-waste policy. The company’s goal is to guide people to make lifestyle changes that imitate sustainable natural cycles. Finally, the event took care of the cleaning of the running routes immediately after the end of the races. The coordinator of the environmental actions was the event’s Sustainability Partner, The Sports Footprint.
