On Sunday 24th September, in Genoa, Liguria (Italy), Worldrise Onlus organised a day dedicated to the protection of the sea, as part of the 30×30 Italy campaign, which aims to protect 30% of the sea by 2030. The event was free and open to all, put together by both Worldrise, Earthink Festival, and the cultural associations Tekhnè and Alle Ortiche. Participants were welcomed to join in on a large clean up, listen to engaging talks with experts and participate in environmental awareness workshops. The aim of the event was to bring participants even closer to the sea and explain the importance of protecting the blue planet.
