CTC also cares about the environment; therefore all events are carefully designed to have the minimum environmental impact.

In addition, during the events, the organizers will provide information on the Cyclades’ natural environment and the significance of recycling.

According to CTC, its goal for 2019 is to eliminate single-use plastic.
