Twenty Trees for twenty Registrations: Tree Planting in Camprodon for Sustainability
As part of its Green Week initiative, it committed to planting one tree for every registration made during the campaign period, linking the passion for sports with environmental protection.
Camprodon, November 10 – In Camprodon, the Transpyr staff carried out a tree-planting initiative as a commitment to the environment. As part of the Green Week initiative, the team planted a tree for each registration received during the campaign, connecting the passion for sports with the protection of nature. This action symbolizes the effort to restore natural spaces and the responsibility toward a greener future. Each tree planted is a step toward sustainability and the preservation of mountain ecosystems.
Green Week was much more than a registration campaign; it was an invitation from Transpyr to its participants to actively engage in a positive action for the environment. During that week, riders were able to register at a special rate, with the knowledge that their participation would result in a tangible improvement for nature and biodiversity in Camprodon. This effort aligns with Transpyr Coast to Coast’s core commitment not only to promote sports but to make every step a contribution toward sustainability.
