The environmental impact of single -use water bottles

Single-use plastic bottles are one of the most common waste at sporting events worldwide. Although they may seem practical and accessible, their environmental impact is profound and long-lasting. A single bottle may take more than 400 years to degrade, and many end up in the sea or in natural spaces, affecting biodiversity and contaminating our ecosystems.

At Ocean Lava Lanzarote, we actively promote the bottle reuse as an effective and simple measure to reduce this ecological footprint. During our events, we provide accessible hydration points so that athletes and the public can refill their own containers. In addition, we collaborate with brands and suppliers committed to the environment to promote a more sustainable sports culture. By choosing a reusable bottle, you are not only taking care of your health: you are also protecting the planet.
