HELMEPA's exhibition "Let's change habits... Not the climats", at the island of Psara

From: 25.05.2011 To: 26.05.2011 Share

The Hellenic Marine Environment Protection Association, HELMEPA, continues the operation of its mobile environmental exhibition titled "Let's change habits... Not the climats", dedicated to the memory of Maria P. Tsakos.

Invited by the Mayor of the historic island of Psara, the exhibition will be hosted at the Municipality's centre of cultural events on May 25 and 26, 2011 to give to the 50 schoolchildren and the residents of the island the opportunity to hear about "climate change", the issue widely debated nowadays. Moreover, they will learn on how our everyday life is affected by this phenomenon and what we can do to address it.

The presence of the exhibition of HELMEPA on Psara constitutes a special honor for all the Members, seafarers and shipowners, because the contribution of the island to Greece’s struggle for independence and the sacrifice of its inhabitants represent an important part of our maritime history.
