Putting sport and citizen science at the service of life:
Connecting with the ecosystem requires, above all, a physical experience, whether you decide to act on a stand-up paddleboard (SUP is a derivative of the Hawaiian canoe - ancestor of modern surfing - practiced by Polynesian kings, which is practiced standing on the water, associated with a paddle), or on foot, at the water's edge, on a beach or along a bank.
Your actions are an opportunity to collect information on the quantity, origin and typology of pollution present in the water, and to transmit these datas to our scientific partners (Surfrider Foundation Europe, Freshwater Watch in Oxford, DryRivers of INRAE, CEREMA). These participatory and citizen science initiatives are driven by map-making (and not cleaning) and in line with 3 of the Sustainable Development Goals defined by the UN.
