By emphasizing the importance of coastal and marine cleanliness on World Environment Day, BNP Paribas Cardif Turkey continues to raise awareness with its vision of a livable world. Recently, BNP Paribas Cardif Turkey took action for blue seas and clean shores. In order to draw attention to how environmental pollution affects our seas and coasts negatively, BNP Paribas Cardif volunteers organized a coastal cleaning event in collaboration with the MarineClean Association/TURMEPA. 20 volunteers gathered at Kısırkaya Beach in Sarıyer, Istanbul to combat marine pollution caused by terrestrial waste. During the approximately 3-hour coastal cleaning activity at Kısırkaya Beach, Cardif volunteers successfully collected a total of 86 kilograms of paper, plastic, metal, glass, and non-recyclable waste, removing them from the sea. The collected waste was sorted and delivered to the municipality for recycling.

As part of the event, an interactive training session was conducted by the MarineClean Association/TURMEPA. BNP Paribas Cardif volunteers, who participated in volunteer activities during their working hours as part of the BNP Paribas Group’s global 1 Million Hours Volunteer Program, gained important knowledge about the impacts of seas and marine pollution on nature and wildlife, in addition to contributing to coastal cleanliness.
