Initiative

Plastic Free Certification

Plastic Free Certification was created in 2018 by a group of 12 members, coming from different worlds but connected by an invisible thread: the protection and safety of the planet and human beings. They are associated with ASviS, itself founded in 2016 with the aim of raising awareness of the importance of the Agenda 2030 goals for sustainable development, by mobilizing Italian society, its economic and social players and its institutions. The initiative proposes to certify companies and establishments that are actively committed to reducing their use of single-use plastics. It also promotes awareness of the environmental impact of plastics and encourages the transition to more sustainable practices.

Action

Ethic Ocean

Ethic Ocean mobilizes all professionals in the fishing and aquaculture sector by encouraging good practices in favor of preserving the ocean and its resources.
For restaurateurs, Ethic Ocean provides information and support to help them better understand the resource issues at stake, so they can make responsible, sustainable purchases to limit overfishing and respect marine biodiversity. Ethic Ocean provides them with a Species Guide (updated every year) to guide them through this process. The Species Guide is now available as a mobile application for consumers.
