Abstract(s)
The campaign “The Sea Starts Here”, designed by “Eco-escolas”, is raising awareness on the impact of littering into road gutter (that might lead the litter into the sea), in order to prevent it. Sines municipally adapted the methodology and added an extra activity: cleaning the road gutters in the schools of Sines and its surroundings. So, several activities were carried out: workshops, cleaning of the road gutters, conception and design of the pictures in the classroom, plus draw and painting the design in the road gutters. The
whole project was extraordinarily successful, and all the activities had clearly upbeat reactions from the students of the 7th year. The spoken feedback from the school community, was also incredibly positive.
