In a world where the green lung is in full degradation and where our country is exposed to a fragile ecosystem, it is our duty to fight against its problems while providing solutions that can have an impac. In another register, we are facing maritime pollution that causes more damage than we can imagine. We also want to make this beach clean and much more welcoming by reducing plastic waste in order to allow aquatic animals such as the sea turtle to be able to develop properly as before.

In a world where the green lung is in full degradation and where our country is exposed to a fragile ecosystem, it is our duty to fight against its problems while providing solutions that can have an impact. We are confronted with maritime pollution. That's why we're committed raising awareness among local populations through the cleaning of plastic waste. We also wanted to make this beach clean by reducing plastic waste permitting aquatic animals like the sea turtle prospere properly as before.
We were able to discover the usefulness of each tree, in particular the usefulness of casuarinas which were used to slow down the advance of the sea and the medicinal virtues of moringa; the usefulness of regularly cleaning the beaches by removing plastic waste and above all the need to better educate the population about the need for reforestation and to keep our environment clean.
