From June 26 to 30 we joined the Foiling Week™ 2024 held in Fraglia Vela Malcesine, Lake Garda, with our partner ROCKWOOL Group. ⛵️ During the event,we had the opportunity to present the environmental projects carried out in collaboration with Team Denmark, as "More Speed Less Plastic" and "Race To Restore", highilighting how sports can be an effective platform to communicate high-impact environmental initiatives. Together with ROCKWOOL and BioDesign Foundation, we joined forces in a clean-up activity involving more than 50 people, including Foiling Week participants and athletes from the ROCKWOOL Denmark SailGP Team, showcasing a concrete commitment to environmental protection. We were proud to support this pioneering event and its commitment to sustainability and marine preservation. ♻️ Pictures by Richard Edwards - ROCKWOOL Group #OceanSustainability #OneOceanFoundation #WeAreAllOneOcean #Sailing #foilingweek2024 #Sustainability #NoPlanetB

Proud to be partnered with ROCKWOOL Group and on a mission to protect and restore our oceans together with One Ocean Foundation and SailGP 🤝 #WorldOceansDay #WorldOceanDay #SailGP
This #WorldOceansDay, we're celebrating the power of our ocean! 🌎 The vast majority of industrial companies fail to adhere to #SDG14 – Life Below Water – and it is the least funded of the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals. We want to change that. It's important that we all understand our impact on the ocean – and how we can work together to reduce it. The built environment is the biggest contributor of greenhouse gas emissions, and we need to urgently adapt how we build in order to meet our targets. 🏡 We believe that the solutions to this challenge already exist, we just need to use them. Through our collaboration with ROCKWOOL Denmark SailGP Team, One Ocean Foundation and SailGP, ROCKWOOL is determined to lead the conversation around our ocean – and how we can protect and restore it. That's why we're working on exciting initiatives, including using our sustainable materials to help support ocean life, and working with scientists and academia to help drive biodiversity in the cities that we visit around the #SailGP calendar – such as replanting eelgrass as part of our new Race To Restore project. #WorldOceansDay #WOD24 #Sustainability #MarineConservation #SDG Mirella Amalia Vitale, Jonno Turner, Rich Edwards, Kristina Boerder, Katja Salskov-Iversen, Dalhousie University
