NEW LIFE
The New Life project aims to give continuity to the strategic lines that have been developed during the latest events, which are based on the premise of reducing environmental impact, advocating for selective collection and recycling, as much as possible, of the materials used for the construction of the venue where the events take place.
Classic Surf Pro, together with other institutions and sponsors, continues on a positive path towards minimizing the environmental impact in the area where it is held.
However, they also emphasize the guidelines to follow to improve in future editions, such as: estimating water consumption and wastewater production; hiring electric consumption using renewable energies; assessing CO2 emissions and other greenhouse gases related to transport used and promoting proper waste selection, among others.
We Sustainability – Cabreiroá Ecologic.
As part of the activities present at the World Surf League Spain events, Cabreiroá, along with the WE Sustainability platform and the organization, carry out various activations and actions to reduce the carbon footprint to the maximum, quantifying, separating, and cleaning the event’s waste to transform them into second lives. The aim is not only to reduce the carbon footprint but to improve the environment in which we live through beach cleanups, environmental activism workshops, talks, and waste transformation.
