EcoFestival

In order to realize a real EcoFestival it is necessary to realize, gradually, concrete actions that can put in practice the concepts of Responsibility and Sustainability

Posidonia Festival organization is developing some actions, as CO2 compensation and rubbish recycling, to reduce the Festival impact, globally on the environment and locally on the island of Formentera. Some of this actions will be already realized from this 1st edition which will be the laboratory to develop further actions in the next Festival editions,  to realize a Posidonia Festival always more sustainable and to ensure the respect that Formentera and its inhabitants deserve. 

However we all have to be aware that even if the Festival organization is assuming its responsibilities towards the environment and Formentera, this will be not enough without the responsibility of all the organizations and of each single participants involved, that will be the unique responsibles for their actions.

Anyway this is a real prove that another world is not only possible, it is really work in progress.

 

The actions that have been token for the 2008 edition are:

 

CO2 compensation

Posidonia Festival organization will compensate the CO2 (responsibles of the global warming and of the environmental change) produced by the Festival organization through planting a number of trees calculated to compensate the pollution caused by the Festival organization. The trees will be planted in Formentera, according with local authorities and with the local environmental characteristics. The value of this action is not only related to the absorption of carbon dioxide, but it will generate new forest (attracting wildlife), oxygen, soil.

Posidonia Festival wants to be an EcoFestival with no CO2 emissions  

 

Rubbish collecting  and recycling

The rubbish will be collected in different containers to be later recycled as much as possible, in cooperation with the Municipality of Formentera and CESPA .
