Support for Sustainable Fisheries Carrefoursa & Enerjisa Enerji & Enerjisa Üretim

The Sustainable Fishing Project is going to carry out for the purpose of both protecting marine biodiversity and developing the fishing industry in Adana Karataş Region, one of our activity regions. The biggest problem in the region is the increasing plastic waste in the sea. Fishermen who are the Fisheries Cooperative members of the region, will meet their energy needs from; renewable energy sources (installing a solar panel on the roof of the cooperative); recycling the plastic waste, collected by the fishermen and local people, in the recycling center to be established in the cooperative; increasing the awareness of the local people through education and volunteering activities, and reducing the plastic waste; a sustainable system will be established through activities as such. At the same time, by knitting fishing nets, the visibility of women, who are in the sector but invisible, will be ensured. Fishermen will be trained and their technical capacity will be increased. By providing training to teachers, students, restaurants and tourism businesses awareness will be increased. Volunteer activities will be organized to disseminate the project, increase its visibility and raise the awareness of our employees on this issue. Our employees and local people will participate in activities such as beach and port cleaning, waste separation, and removing ghost nets from the sea. The project will be carried out in cooperation with Karataş Fisheries Cooperative and Karataş Municipality.
