3ª edição do Festival das Florestas Marinhas decorre de 21 a 28 de maio

A terceira edição do “Festival das Florestas Marinhas” decorre de 21 a 28 de maio, no Porto da Baleeira, em Sagres.

O programa conta com diversas atividades, como palestras, observação de golfinhos e de algas, workshops, mergulho e um feira/exposição de artesanato e gastronomia.

 

Conjugando ciência, conservação e educação para divulgar a importância da biodiversidade das Florestas Marinhas, este festival pretende envolver ainda mais a comunidade da região e os estudantes, dando-lhes a conhecer a diversidade marinha de Sagres, nomeadamente as algas e os corais da região, e reforçar a importância geral destes seres vivos nos sistemas marinhos e na sua conservação. 

Para Alexandra Teodósio, vice-reitora da UAlg para a Internacionalização e Desenvolvimento Sustentável e investigadora, “a participação neste Festival de ciência cidadã é uma oportunidade para os estudantes da UAlg, guiados pelos investigadores e docentes da UAlg e do CCMAR, mergulharem literalmente nas florestas marinhas, um ecossistema único na zona costeira de Sagres”. Para a investigadora, o festival será também uma forma de contactar com um ensino baseado na metodologia “problem based learning”, aplicado às ciências do mar, em contexto real, e uma profunda aprendizagem proporcionada pelo saber das comunidades da região. 

Saliente-se que as florestas marinhas, tal como as terrestres, têm um papel crucial na produção primária do alimento e contribuem de forma natural para o combate às alterações climáticas, pelo enorme potencial de absorção de CO2. “As florestas submersas são pouco acessíveis e muitas vezes desconhecidas pelos cidadãos, mas como só se ama e se protege o que se conhece, estas atividades de descoberta das diferentes componentes do meio marinho, contribuem ativamente para a sustentabilidade das ações de conservação destas áreas pela sociedade”, conclui Alexandra Teodósio.

Do vasto programa deste Festival, destaque para a exposição “OceanArt: Science to Art”, que estará patente no Forte do Beliche, em Sagres, até ao dia 15 de junho, sendo inaugurada no dia 17 de maio, às 17h00.

Esta exposição junta treze cientistas e artistas, que apresentam mais de trinta obras de pintura, escultura e fotografia relacionadas com o Oceano, de forma a aumentar a consciência sobre os problemas que este enfrenta, a fim de se conseguir a mobilização dos cidadãos para a sua proteção e restauração.

Este evento, organizado pela Universidade do Algarve, pelo Centro de Ciências do Mar, e integrado no programa PRR impulsos Jovem e Adulto FOSTEAM@SOUTH, conta ainda com o apoio da Junta de Freguesia de Sagres, da Docapesca, da Casco Antiguo, da Iberagar e da biodiversa+.

Algumas atividades carecem de inscrição. Consulte programa aqui

ABC Bitcoin Pizza Day- ALVOR

Get ready for the very first ABC Bitcoin Pizza Day – in beautiful Alvor! 🍕🔥

 

​Crypto friends, it's almost time to commemorate one of the quirkiest and most legendary moments in Bitcoin history: Bitcoin Pizza Day!

 

🍕Wait, what’s Bitcoin Pizza Day all about?

​Glad you asked! Back in 2010, a crypto trailblazer made the first-ever real-world Bitcoin purchase – trading 10,000 BTC for two pizzas. Yes, 10,000! That moment kickstarted the era of Bitcoin as a usable currency, and we’ve been building ever since.

 

🌟What’s happening in Alvor?

  • Pizza galore – because we’re honoring the spirit of the day with slices all around.

  • Drinks to keep things chill – beer, soda, and more.

  • Great convos – connect with fellow Bitcoiners, builders, and the crypto curious.

💸 Just a heads-up: everyone covers their own tab.
