Planting shrubs on campus and in Bairro S. Gonçalo

The activity involves volunteers replacing grass with shrubs to reduce water usage for irrigation and enhance the capacity of shrubs to convert CO2 into O2. Volunteers receive a brief introduction on these benefits at the start of the activity. Following the introduction, they are divided into groups and assigned different areas of the neighborhood, where they replant shrubs independently, with guidance from Cascais Ambiente staff. The activity lasts for three hours.
