00:06 Environmental respect and the protection of Italian waters are a priority for Arcafondi,
00:12 which underlines with Arca Blue Leaders a project committed since 2022 to preserve the coastal areas and lakes most vulnerable to the sea level,
00:22 next to the sea of the Olus.
00:24 This year, the Sgr Arcafondi-Sgr Trarca Partnership and the Sondrio People's Bank with Mare Vivo have also resumed their activities.
00:31 The area of interest was Geralario, on Lake Como, which saw the collaboration of the municipality,
00:37 which supported the event with its sponsorship, and the presence of Mayor Oscar Mella,
00:43 where the cleanup activity was carried out thanks to the intervention of volunteers from Mare Vivo
00:48 and a group of young students of the San Carlo College of Milan, who released the lakeshore from the waste.
00:57 We have collected up to 200 kg of waste with this activity and we have also recovered a net of over 300 meters on the coast of Palermitane.
01:10 Today we are instead in Geralario, where we will go to clean the beaches.
01:16 The day went well, despite the weather we managed to complete the collection.
01:21 We have collected more than 8.5 kg of waste, from plastic waste to plastic, almost 300 cigarette butts.
01:31 We must thank above all the boys of the San Carlo Institute, who helped us today in this activity.
01:38 The commercial partner of Arcafondi SGR and supporter of environmental safeguarding is also Banca Popolare di Sondrio.
01:46 Banca Popolare di Sondrio is very happy to participate in this project, the Arca Blue Leaders project,
01:52 with its SGR of reference, Arcafondi SGR, in this concrete initiative linked to the protection of the environment,
02:04 to the protection of the local community. Through this project, this concrete initiative,
02:10 the bank is very happy to give a concrete signal of attention to the environment,
02:16 in a path that the bank has already undertaken and linked to the initiatives of environmental and social sustainability.
02:26 For Mare Vivo Onlus it is essential the support of companies such as Arcafondi for the development of projects
02:32 aimed above all at the boys of the schools and the volunteers.
02:36 Through the sponsorship of the company, of the company Arcafondi SGR, we can carry out numerous initiatives,
02:46 many of which are aimed at the protection of the sea and the coasts, so we intend lakes like today here on Lake Como.
02:56 Today's event is attended by the boys of a school institute in Milan,
03:02 because, as we said, the awareness and environmental education is always a commitment of ours towards the new generations.
