Optimist - a role model project of the YC Ascona youth squad

Pollution of the sea and water in general has become a major issue for the international sailing community during the past years. The youth squad of the YC Ascona has presented its role model project to bring about a more concerned attitude towards this major problem of humanity. They decided to abstain from using pet bottles during their sailing activities, a volume estimated at 64kg/year.
Here the video presentation of this project and the report (in Italian).
