How the event was born

The global pandemic has abruptly changed our lives. We have all stopped hugging each other, we are no longer with our family and friends. We were forced to isolate ourselves, to stop travelling, to change our routines at work. Suddenly our world seems different. Many people lost their jobs, others got sick with this pandemic and, suddenly, nothing was what it used to be.

It only took 15 days to destroy one year of work at Domitur and Algarve Nature Tours. We were forced to cancel all of our clients’ trips, and return the deposits, on projects we had been working for a long time. Travel for 2021 is still uncertain which means all the work done during 2020 was unproductive. And we still don’t know what 2022 will be like, but we predict it will take time to rebuild everything we lost at this stage.

However, we are not lowering our arms! We want to offer hope for those wishing to visit Portugal in the near future. We want to create a fun moment.

And we thought, why not call the world to participate?

Why not do something great in which everyone can participate wherever they live and in this way we can share experiences, know each other even if it is virtually. Show that we are united even though physically we have to be separated. We need to keep hoping that we will all travel again soon!

We believe that this will be the first of a gigantic wave of excellent initiatives that we can develop. A community initiative, that brings people together, that promotes responsible and sustainable tourism, that stimulates local commerce, supporting your city’s travel agencies. Because united we are stronger and we go further.

The organization will be online for 48 hours to support all participants at the time they decide to start participating.

You can even be the ambassador of your country!

Because we want to take this event to as many countries as possible, the first registrant from each country will be appointed the ambassador of that country showing that we can make a difference!

We want to reach every country and for that you will have a support team to support you throughout the process.

CAUSES

Reforesting

Restoring the world’s forests is “the best climate change solution available” aside from leaving fossil fuels in the ground. Trees create the right conditions for people, animals, and food to survive. They provide a natural carbon filter for the air. They give shade, preventing other living things from being damaged by the sun or heat. Trees also help protect the pathways of streams, rivers, and other sources of water. This helps keep the water clean, prevents flooding or overflowing, and creates an even healthier ecosystem through aquatic wildlife.

Plastic in the oceans

Plastic pollution in the world’s oceans is one of the biggest environmental issues of our time, impacting more than 600 marine species. Plastic pollution does not only impact sea life, it also carries toxic pollutants into the food chain – a food chain including us humans. According to a study conducted in collaboration with Deloitte, yearly economic costs due to marine plastic pollution are estimated to be between $6-19bn USD. The costs stem from the plastic’s impact on tourism, fisheries and aquaculture, and (governmental) cleanups.

Reduce waste

This is a cause that doesn’t have an organization associated. We all are that active agents. Our actions on daily life make the difference. Reducing what we waste is a great way to reduce our impact in the environment. From thinking differently about what we buy, to using re-usable items, to have a composter at home – there are lots of ways to make a real difference. We will give you some tips how to reduce waste and consume in a more responsible way.
