Carbon offsetting: €40,000 raised and concrete action taken!
Continuing our commitment to the environment, a major new feature was introduced at this year's Mont Blanc Marathon: mandatory carbon offsetting for all runners.
Thanks to this collective measure, €40,000 has already been raised - a first concrete step towards limiting the event's carbon footprint.
The organization chosen to receive the funds is theAssociation Française d'Agroforesterie (AFA) 👉 www.agroforesterie.fr
This organization works for the development of agroforestry: a practice that involves integrating trees into agricultural systems, with multiple environmental and climatic benefits. In addition to capturing atmospheric carbon, these systems promote crop diversification, soil preservation and farm resilience.
💬 "We hope that this partnership can be a long-term one, to build a coherent environmental commitment faithful to the values carried by the Mont Blanc Marathon."
This action marks a turning point in our desire to take concrete action for the climate... by continuing to run with a conscience 🏃♂️🌍
