CSTI’s Prevent Plastic in the Mediterranean Sea initiative aims to disseminate best practices, regarding the management of plastic waste and implement alternative actions in order to change the social behaviour and the behaviour of the tourism industry regarding the unsustainable use of plastics.

The initiative, which started in September, will take place in the coastlines of Cyprus until November 2018 and includes beach clean-up and activities for raising guests’ awareness regarding the importance of preventing plastic pollution in the Mediterranean Sea.
