Investigador do CCMAR integra expedição do Schmidt Ocean Institute

Paulo Relvas, investigador do Centro de Ciências do Mar (CCMAR), integra uma campanha oceanográfica do Schmidt Ocean Institute. O navio R/V Falkor levantou amarras a 28 de maio e vai terminar a viagem a 17 de junho, com o objetivo de demonstrar novas metodologias de observação do oceano com veículos autónomos subaquáticos, de superfície e aéreos que estarão em contacto entre eles. Trata-se de uma expedição única, financiada pelo Schmidt Ocean Institute, um organismo estabelecido por Erik Schmidt, presidente da Google.

Novo projeto quer acabar com os plásticos em restaurantes e cafés

“Low plastic footprint” é o nome da nova campanha de sensibilização que quer descartar os plásticos de espaços comerciais. Um grupo de investigadores do Centro de Ciências do Mar (CCMAR), lançou o apelo à comunidade para a criação de uma “Pegada com menos plásticos” e o resultado é uma adesão significativa por parte de restaurantes e cafés da zona de Gambelas.
