Environment

As part of our commitment to environmental preservation, we carried out an important trail management action on the 7 Degraus Trail, located within Serra da Bocaina National Park. This work focused on preventing and controlling erosion along the trail, ensuring soil conservation and protection of the local vegetation.

The intervention was carefully planned to minimize impact on the ecosystem, allowing both runners and future visitors to enjoy the natural beauty of this region without compromising its integrity. This effort reflects our commitment to maintaining the trails in safe and sustainable conditions.

Developed by Daniela Oliveira with the help of local Caiçara children, these clay balls, filled with jussara seeds, were distributed to athletes to disperse along the trails, aiding in the reforestation of Serra da Bocaina. This innovative project aims to regenerate degraded areas and promote local biodiversity.

Made with charcoal, salt, flour, and microorganisms (EM1), these mud balls were released into local rivers to improve water quality. The initiative involved Caiçara children from Barra Grande and Campinho School, emphasizing the importance of water preservation.

With a commitment to reducing plastic in nature, the event organization implemented the use of reusable cups and biodegradable materials, significantly decreasing disposable plastic use and waste generation. This initiative reflects our dedication to minimizing environmental impact and promoting more sustainable practices.

Available for use at the event’s expo and arena, the returnable cups promote environmental awareness and significantly reduce plastic waste generation. Additionally, they provide an extra source of income for local vendors, who benefit directly from this sustainable practice.
