June 8 – World Oceans Day

Oceans cover more than 70% of our planet, produce much of the oxygen we breathe, regulate the climate and support an extraordinary diversity of life. Protecting them begins with our everyday choices and with caring for the coastlines and marine ecosystems that connect us to the sea.

As part of the 5th Summer School of Natural Sciences in Nisyros, participants took part in a beach clean-up at Chochlakoi Beach, actively contributing to the protection of the coastal environment and demonstrating how knowledge can be transformed into meaningful action for a more sustainable future.
