<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Κατά τη διάρκεια της πρόσφατης Γενικής Συνέλευσης της REMEDIES στην Αθήνα, από τις 4 έως τις 6 Μαΐου, διοργανώσαμε μια πρακτική επίδειξη του επαναχρησιμοποιούμενου συστήματος κυπέλλων <a href="https://remedies-for-ocean.eu/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">REMEDIES</a> και της εφαρμογής REMEDIES DRS για κινητά, αναπόσπαστα μέρη του <a href="https://alchemia-nova.gr/el/erevna-kainotomia/products/plug-and-play-2-zero-waste/">PLUG AND PLAY 2 ZERO WASTE</a>, στις εγκαταστάσεις του Impact Hub Athens.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Σε συνεργασία με την ελληνική μικροζυθοποιία <a href="https://www.facebook.com/blamethesunbrewing/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Blame the Sun</a>, συνδυάσαμε την τοπική επιχειρηματικότητα, τη βιώσιμη κατανάλωση και την ψηφιακή καινοτομία για να ευαισθητοποιήσουμε το κοινό σχετικά με τα επαναχρησιμοποιήσιμα συστήματα και τη μείωση των πλαστικών αποβλήτων.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Εφαρμόζουμε κυκλικές λύσεις στην καθημερινή ζωή</h2>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Αντί να συζητάμε για τις έννοιες της κυκλικής οικονομίας μόνο μέσω παρουσιάσεων και συναντήσεων, προσκαλέσαμε τους εταίρους του <a href="https://remedies-for-ocean.eu/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">REMEDIES </a>να συμμετάσχουν ενεργά στο σύστημα επαναχρησιμοποιούμενων κυπέλλων που αναπτύχθηκε στο πλαίσιο του έργου.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Καθ&#8217; όλη τη διάρκεια της εκδήλωσης, σερβίραμε μπύρα από τη μικροζυθοποιεία Blame the Sun στα ποτήρια <a href="https://remedies-for-ocean.eu/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">REMEDIES </a>Zero Waste, επιτρέποντας στους συμμετέχοντες να βιώσουν από πρώτο χέρι πώς τα μοντέλα κυκλικής κατανάλωσης μπορούν να ενσωματωθούν σε πραγματικά περιβάλλοντα εκδηλώσεων.</p>

<div class="wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-f56f613f wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex">
<div class="wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow" style="flex-basis:100%">
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img decoding="async" width="940" height="788" src="https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/49.png" alt="" class="wp-image-4049" srcset="https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/49.png 940w, https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/49-590x495.png 590w, https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/49-768x644.png 768w" sizes="(max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px" /></figure>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Μέσω αυτής της πρωτοβουλίας, δείξαμε πώς τα φεστιβάλ, τα συνέδρια και οι δημόσιες συγκεντρώσεις μπορούν να αποβάλλουν τα πλαστικά μίας χρήσης υιοθετώντας πρακτικά συστήματα επαναχρησιμοποίησης που υποστηρίζονται από έξυπνα ψηφιακά εργαλεία.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">REMEDIES DRS: Ένα σύστημα που στηρίζει τη επαναχρησιμοποίηση μέσω της ψηφιακής καινοτομίας</h2>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Ένα σημαντικό μέρος της εμπειρίας ήταν η εφαρμογή REMEDIES DRS (Deposit Return System), η οποία αναπτύχθηκε από τον συνεργάτη μας, <a href="https://cibos.gr/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">CIBOS Innovation</a>. Η εφαρμογή επιτρέπει την παρακολούθηση της διανομής, της ανταλλαγής και της επιστροφής επαναχρησιμοποιούμενων ποτηριών κατά τη διάρκεια εκδηλώσεων μέσω ενός απλού συστήματος που χρησιμοποιεί QR κωδικούς. </p>

<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="940" height="788" src="https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/REMEDIES-DRS.png" alt="" class="wp-image-4053" srcset="https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/REMEDIES-DRS.png 940w, https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/REMEDIES-DRS-590x495.png 590w, https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/REMEDIES-DRS-768x644.png 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px" /></figure>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Χρησιμοποιώντας την εφαρμογή, οι συμμετέχοντες μπόρεσαν:</p>

<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>να εγγραφούν και να συνδεθούν με την καμπάνια της εκδήλωσης,</li>



<li>να αποκτήσουν τον δικό τους, προσωπικό, κωδικό QR</li>



<li>να καταγράψουν την επιστροφή και ανταλλαγή του ποτηριού τους με ένα καθαρό,</li>



<li>και να παρακολουθούν το προσωπικό τους σκορ στην επαναχρησιμοποίση σε πραγματικό χρόνο.</li>
</ul>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Το σύστημα υποστηρίζει τρεις βασικές λειτουργίες ανταλλαγής:</p>

<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li><strong>Διανομή</strong> – παραλαβή του πρώτου επαναχρησιμοποιήσιμου κυπέλλου,</li>



<li><strong>Ανταλλαγή </strong>– ανταλλαγή ενός χρησιμοποιημένου κυπέλλου με ένα καθαρό,</li>



<li><strong>Παραλαβή </strong>– επιστροφή του κυπέλλου στο τέλος της χρήσης.</li>
</ul>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Συνδυάζοντας επαναχρησιμοποιήσιμα προϊόντα με την ψηφιακή ιχνηλασιμότητα και την εμπλοκή των χρηστών, παρουσιάσαμε πώς η τεχνολογία μπορεί να διευκολύνει την αλλαγή συμπεριφοράς και να βελτιώσει την επιχειρησιακή αποτελεσματικότητα των συστημάτων μηδενικών αποβλήτων.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Χτίζουμε τοπικές συνεργασίες για συστημική αλλαγή</h2>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Η συνεργασία μας με την <a href="https://www.facebook.com/blamethesunbrewing/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Blame the Sun</a> ανέδειξε τη σημασία της συμμετοχής των τοπικών επιχειρήσεων στη μετάβαση προς κυκλικά και βιώσιμα μοντέλα εκδηλώσεων.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Ως τοπική ελληνική μικροζυθοποιία με ισχυρή ταυτότητα και φιλοσοφία προσανατολισμένη στην κοινότητα, η Blame the Sun μας βοήθησε να δημιουργήσουμε μια αυθεντική και ενδιαφέρουσα εμπειρία που συνέδεε τη βιωσιμότητα με την τοπική κουλτούρα και την κοινωνική αλληλεπίδραση.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Ταυτόχρονα, αυτή η πρωτοβουλία αντανακλούσε μία από τις βασικές αρχές πίσω από το σύστημα <a href="https://alchemia-nova.gr/el/erevna-kainotomia/products/plug-and-play-2-zero-waste/" data-type="page" data-id="3761">PLUG &amp; PLAY 2 ZERO WASTE</a> που αναπτύχθηκε στο πλαίσιο του <a href="https://remedies-for-ocean.eu/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">REMEDIES</a>: τη διαμόρφωση τοπικών κυκλικών οικοσυστημάτων όπου η καινοτομία, οι επιχειρήσεις, οι κοινότητες και οι χρήστες συμμετέχουν ενεργά στη μείωση της παραγωγής αποβλήτων.</p>

<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="940" height="788" src="https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/47.png" alt="" class="wp-image-4051" srcset="https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/47.png 940w, https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/47-590x495.png 590w, https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/47-768x644.png 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px" /></figure>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Δεν μένουμε μόνο στην ενημέρωση, υιοθετούμε!</h2>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Επιδεικνύοντας τα ποτήρια REMEDIES Zero Waste και το σύστημα DRS κατά τη διάρκεια της Γενικής Συνέλευσης, δώσαμε τη δυνατότητα στους εταίρους του REMEDIES να εξερευνήσουν όχι μόνο τις τεχνικές πτυχές της λύσης, αλλά και την εμπειρία χρήστη και τις πρακτικές προκλήσεις εφαρμογής των συστημάτων επαναχρησιμοποίησης σε πραγματικά περιβάλλοντα.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Πιστεύουμε ότι πιλοτικές δράσεις όπως αυτή είναι απαραίτητες για τη δοκιμή κλιμακούμενων εναλλακτικών λύσεων στα πλαστικά μιας χρήσης και την ενθάρρυνση της ευρύτερης υιοθέτησής τους σε φεστιβάλ, τουριστικούς προορισμούς και δημόσιες εκδηλώσεις σε όλη την Ευρώπη και την περιοχή της Μεσογείου.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Στην <a href="https://alchemia-nova.gr/el/">Alchemia Nova Greece</a>, πιστεύουμε ότι η ουσιαστική αλλαγή συμβαίνει όταν οι κυκλικές λύσεις γίνονται ορατές, πρακτικές και εύχρηστες. Μέσω συνεργασιών όπως αυτή, συνεχίζουμε να εργαζόμαστε για καθαρότερες εκδηλώσεις, μειωμένη πλαστική ρύπανση και πιο υγιή οικοσυστήματα μέσω της καινοτομίας, της συμμετοχής και της τοπικής δράσης. </p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Από τις 2 έως τις 4 Απριλίου, η έκθεση ΕΜΕΙΣ ΚΑΙ Ο ΚΟΣΜΟΣ του street artist Δημήτρη Μαρίνη, αποτέλεσε μια πρόσκληση-πρόκληση για τους επισκέπτες να αναλογιστούν τη σχέση τους με τον κόσμο γύρω μας και την ευθύνη μας σε αυτόν. </p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Η έκθεση, που φιλοξενήθηκε στον πολυχώρο 45m2, δημιούργησε το ιδανικό σκηνικό για μια μοναδική συνεργασία: την ενσωμάτωση του συστήματος<strong><a href="https://alchemia-nova.gr/el/erevna-kainotomia/products/plug-and-play-2-zero-waste/"> PLUG &amp; PLAY 2 ZERO WASTE</a></strong> σε μια σύγχρονη καλλιτεχνική εμπειρία.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Επαναπροσδιορίζοντας την εμπειρία της εκδήλωσης</h2>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Η έκθεση ολοκληρώθηκε με ένα πάρτι λήξης το Σάββατο 4 Απριλίου, όπου σερβίραμε στους επισκέπτες μπύρα στα επαναχρησιμοποιούμε ποτήρια του PLUG AND PLAY 2 ZERO WASTE και τους ενημερώσαμε σχετικά με την έννοια της κλειστής χρήσης πόρων. Το πάρτι λήξης στόχευε ακριβώς σε αυτό: να δείξουμε στην πράξη πώς ο τομέας της ψυχαγωγίας μπορεί να μεταβεί από τη γραμμική κατανάλωση σε κυκλικά συστήματα χωρίς να διακυβεύεται σε ποιότητα η εμπειρία του επισκέπτη. </p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Ενσωματώνοντας το σύστημα μηδενικών αποβλήτων σε μια πολιτιστική εκδήλωση, δείξαμε ότι οι κυκλικές λύσεις είναι πρακτικές και επεκτάσιμες, η αλλαγή συμπεριφοράς μπορεί να είναι διαισθητική και ευχάριστη και ότι οι πρωτοβουλίες βιωσιμότητας μπορούν να βελτιώσουν την εμπειρία της εκδήλωσης.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Μια συλλογική προσπάθεια</h2>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Θα θέλαμε να ευχαριστήσουμε θερμά όλους όσους έκαναν δυνατή αυτή την εμπειρία: τους επισκέπτες που υιοθέτησαν έναν νέο τρόπο κατανάλωσης, τον καλλιτέχνη Δημήτρη Μαρίνη για τη σύμπραξη της τέχνης του με την έννοια της κυκλικής οικονομίας και τον πολυχώρο 45m2 για τη φιλοξενία και την υποστήριξη αυτής της πρωτοβουλίας.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Μαζί, δημιουργήσαμε μια ματιά στο μέλλον των βιώσιμων εκδηλώσεων, όπου ο πολιτισμός, η κοινότητα και η κυκλικότητα συνδυάζονται άψογα.</p>

					<description><![CDATA[Η Στρατηγική της Ε.Ε. για τη Βιοοικονομία απαιτεί τη μετάβαση σε μια κυκλική οικονομία χαμηλών εκπομπών άνθρακα και αποδοτικής χρήσης των πόρων, μία οικονομία όπου οι ανανεώσιμοι πόροι αντικαθιστούν τα υλικά που προέρχονται ορυκτά καύσιμα, τα απόβλητα σχεδιάζονται και οι τοπικές αλυσίδες αξίας ενισχύονται. Στην Alchemia-Nova Greece, συμβάλλουμε στην επιτάχυνση αυτής της μετάβασης μέσω του συστήματος PLUG-AND-PLAY 2 ZERO WASTE. ]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Η μετάβαση σε μια βιώσιμη και ανθεκτική οικονομία δεν είναι πλέον ένας μακρινός στόχος. Είναι μια επιτακτική ανάγκη. Σε ευρωπαϊκό επίπεδο, αυτή η μετατόπιση πλαισιώνεται από <strong><a href="https://environment.ec.europa.eu/document/download/dbf8d2ba-9332-4f7a-b336-f356fa4b7236_en?filename=COM_2025_960_1_EN_ACT_part1_v10_0.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">τη Στρατηγική της Ε.Ε. για τη Βιοοικονομία</a></strong>, η οποία προωθεί τη χρήση ανανεώσιμων βιολογικών πόρων, κυκλικών αλυσίδων αξίας και λύσεων που βασίζονται στη φύση. Στόχος της Ε.Ε. είναι να μειωθεί η εξάρτηση από τα ορυκτά καύσιμα, να ελαχιστοποιηθούν τα απόβλητα και να ενισχυθούν οι τοπικές οικονομίες. </p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Στην <strong>Alchemia-Nova Greece</strong>, συμβάλλουμε σε αυτή τη μετάβαση μετατρέποντας τους στόχους πολιτικής σε πραγματικές λύσεις. Μέσω του συστήματος <strong><a href="https://alchemia-nova.gr/el/erevna-kainotomia/products/plug-and-play-2-zero-waste/">PLUG-AND-PLAY 2 ZERO WASTE</a></strong>, το οποίο αναπτύξαμε και επιδείξαμε στο πλαίσιο του έργου <strong><a href="https://alchemia-nova.gr/el/erevna-kainotomia/erga/remedies-horizon-europe/">REMEDIES</a></strong>, παρουσιάζουμε πώς τα βιολογικά υλικά, ο κυκλικός σχεδιασμός και οι τεχνολογίες έξυπνης διαχείρισης του νερού μπορούν να συνεργαστούν για να επιτύχουν απτό αντίκτυπο σε δημόσιους χώρους, εκδηλώσεις και τουριστικά σημεία. </p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Τι προβλέπει η Στρατηγική της Ε.Ε. για τη Βιοοικονομία</h2>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Η επικαιροποιημένη <strong><a href="https://environment.ec.europa.eu/document/download/dbf8d2ba-9332-4f7a-b336-f356fa4b7236_en?filename=COM_2025_960_1_EN_ACT_part1_v10_0.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Στρατηγική της Ε.Ε. για τη Βιοοικονομία </a></strong>επικεντρώνεται σε τρεις αλληλένδετους πυλώνες:</p>

<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Την αντικατάσταση των υλικών που βασίζονται σε ορυκτά καύσιμα με ανανεώσιμες και βιοβασιζόμενες εναλλακτικές λύσεις</li>



<li>Τη διατήρηση της χρήσης των πόρων για όσο το δυνατόν μεγαλύτερο χρονικό διάστημα μέσω κυκλικών συστημάτων</li>



<li>Την ανάπτυξη βιώσιμων, τοπικών λύσεων που προστατεύουν τα οικοσυστήματα και υποστηρίζουν την ανθεκτικότητα ενάντια στην κλιματική αλλαγή</li>
</ul>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Η επίτευξη αυτών των στόχων απαιτεί κάτι περισσότερο από καινοτομία στα υλικά. Απαιτεί ολοκληρωμένα συστήματα που αντιμετωπίζουν την παραγωγή, την κατανάλωση, την επαναχρησιμοποίηση, τη χρήση νερού και ενέργειας, ενώ παράλληλα εμπλέκουν ενεργά τους πολίτες και τους τελικούς χρήστες. Αυτή ακριβώς είναι η πρόκληση που φιλοδοξούμε να αντιμετωπίσουμε μέσω του συστήματος <strong><a href="https://alchemia-nova.gr/el/erevna-kainotomia/products/plug-and-play-2-zero-waste/">PLUG-AND-PLAY 2 ZERO WASTE.</a></strong>  </p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">PLUG-AND-PLAY 2 ZERO WASTE: Ένα κυκλικό σύστημα στην πράξη</h2>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Το<strong><a href="https://alchemia-nova.gr/el/erevna-kainotomia/products/plug-and-play-2-zero-waste/"> PLUG-AND-PLAY 2 ZERO WASTE</a></strong> είναι ένα κλιμακωτό σύστημα που επιτρέπει τη μετάβαση από τα πλαστικά μίας χρήσης στην επαναχρησιμοποίηση. Συνδυάζει βιοβασιζόμενα και επαναχρησιμοποιήσιμα ποτήρια με μια φορητή μονάδα καθαρισμού, δημιουργώντας έτσι μια λύση κλειστού κυκλώματος που επεκτείνεται και προσαρμόζεται σε διαφορετικά μεγέθη εκδηλώσεων. </p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Έτσι, ευθυγραμμίζεται άμεσα με τον στόχο της Στρατηγικής της Ε.Ε. για τη Βιοοικονομία <strong>να επανασχεδιαστούν προϊόντα και συστήματα για την πρόληψη των αποβλήτων</strong> πριν από τη δημιουργία τους. </p>

<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1100" height="619" src="https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/20250608_153309-1-1100x619.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-3766" srcset="https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/20250608_153309-1-1100x619.jpg 1100w, https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/20250608_153309-1-590x332.jpg 590w, https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/20250608_153309-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/20250608_153309-1-1536x865.jpg 1536w, https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/20250608_153309-1-2048x1153.jpg 2048w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px" /></figure>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Η κυκλικότητα δεν σταματά στα υλικά. Ο καθαρισμός και η συντήρηση επαναχρησιμοποιούμενων προϊόντων απαιτούν νερό, έναν πόρο που είναι ολοένα και πιο σπάνιος, ειδικά στις μεσογειακές περιοχές. Εδώ είναι που <strong><a href="https://alchemia-nova.gr/el/erevna-kainotomia/products/verteco/">η τεχνολογία vertECO® </a></strong>παίζει κρίσιμο ρόλο.  </p>

<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1100" height="733" src="https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/522302076_18519589555065019_2523470463730792276_n-1100x733.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-3941" srcset="https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/522302076_18519589555065019_2523470463730792276_n-1100x733.jpg 1100w, https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/522302076_18519589555065019_2523470463730792276_n-590x393.jpg 590w, https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/522302076_18519589555065019_2523470463730792276_n-768x512.jpg 768w, https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/522302076_18519589555065019_2523470463730792276_n.jpg 1439w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1100px) 100vw, 1100px" /></figure>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Το <strong><a href="https://alchemia-nova.gr/el/erevna-kainotomia/products/verteco/">vertECO®</a></strong> είναι μια καινοτόμος τεχνολογία ανάκτησης και επεξεργασίας νερού, η οποία είναι ενσωματωμένη στη μονάδα καθαρισμού του <strong><a href="https://alchemia-nova.gr/el/erevna-kainotomia/products/plug-and-play-2-zero-waste/">PLUG-AND-PLAY 2 ZERO WASTE</a></strong> και επιτρέπει την επιτόπια επεξεργασία και επαναχρησιμοποίηση των απόνερων σχηματίζοντας έτσι ένα κλειστό κύκλωμα διαχείρισης νερού, και, μειώνει σημαντικά την κατανάλωση νερού και ενέργειας.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Με την επεξεργασία και την επαναχρησιμοποίηση του νερού, η τεχνολογία <strong><a href="https://alchemia-nova.gr/el/erevna-kainotomia/products/verteco/">vertECO®</a></strong> υποστηρίζει τη Στρατηγική της Ε.Ε. για τη Βιοοικονομία με την <strong>αποτελεσματική χρήση των πόρων, την προστασία των οικοσυστημάτων και την προσαρμογή στην κλιματική αλλαγή</strong>, ιδίως σε αστικά και παράκτια περιβάλλοντα που αντιμετωπίζουν υδατική πίεση.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Το σύστημα PLUG AND PLAY 2 ZERO WASTE, που αναπτύξαμε στο πλαίσιο του έργου <strong><a href="https://remedies-for-ocean.eu/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">REMEDIES</a></strong>, ανταποκρίνεται άμεσα σε μία από τις πιο ορατές πηγές της πλαστικής ρύπανσης: τα ποτήρια και τα μπουκάλια μίας χρήσης που χρησιμοποιούνται σε φεστιβάλ, εκδηλώσεις και παράκτιους προορισμούς. </p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Το REMEDIES παρέχει το πλαίσιο για να δείξει ότι οι λύσεις βιοοικονομίας δεν είναι απλώς θεωρητικές έννοιες, αλλά πρακτικά συστήματα που μπορούν να εφαρμοστούν σήμερα για τη μείωση της ρύπανσης, την προστασία των οικοσυστημάτων και την υποστήριξη του βιώσιμου τουρισμού.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Η Στρατηγική της Ε.Ε. για τη Βιοοικονομία θα επιτύχει μόνο εάν η καινοτομία εφαρμόζεται σε λύσεις που αφορούν στην καθημερινή μας ζωή. Συστήματα όπως το <strong><a href="https://alchemia-nova.gr/el/erevna-kainotomia/products/plug-and-play-2-zero-waste/">PLUG-AND-PLAY 2 ZERO WASTE</a></strong> καταδεικνύουν πώς: </p>

<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>τα βιοβασιζόμενα υλικά μπορούν να αντικαταστήσουν τα πλαστικά μίας χρήσης</li>



<li>το νερό μπορεί να επαναχρησιμοποιηθεί με ασφάλεια και αποτελεσματικότητα</li>



<li>η κυκλική υποδομή μπορεί να λειτουργήσει τοπικά και σε κλίμακα,</li>



<li>οι πολίτες μπορούν να συμμετέχουν ενεργά στη μετάβαση.</li>
</ul>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Ενσωματώνοντας προϊόντα, υποδομές και συμπεριφορές σε ένα σύστημα, προχωράμε πέρα ​​από τις μεμονωμένες παρεμβάσεις προς μια συστημική αλλαγή.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Τα θαλάσσια απορρίμματα αποτελούν μια από τις μεγαλύτερες περιβαλλοντικές προκλήσεις της εποχής μας. Στη Μεσόγειο, η ρύπανση από πλαστικά απειλεί τα θαλάσσια οικοσυστήματα, τις τοπικές οικονομίες και τη φυσική μας κληρονομιά. Ωστόσο, η πραγματική αλλαγή ξεκινά μέσα από τις ίδιες τις κοινότητες.  </p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Η alchemia-nova Greece, ως εταίρος του <a href="https://alchemia-nova.gr/el/erevna-kainotomia/erga/remedies-horizon-europe/">
  <strong>ευρωπαϊκού έργου REMEDIES</strong>
</a>, συμβάλλει ενεργά στη μείωση της πλαστικής ρύπανσης, φέρνοντας κοντά την καινοτομία με τη συλλογική δράση των πολιτών. Μέσα από ένα δίκτυο τοπικών συνεργασιών, δράσεων και εκστρατειών ευαισθητοποίησης, το REMEDIES αποδεικνύει ότι η επιστήμη και η συμμετοχή της κοινωνίας μπορούν να συνδυαστούν για να προσφέρουν πραγματικό, μετρήσιμο αντίκτυπο. </p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Blue Halkidiki: Μετατρέποντας την ελπίδα σε δράση</h2>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Μία από τις πιο εμπνευσμένες συνεργασίες μας είναι αυτή με το <a href="https://greekecoproject.gr/">
  <strong>Greek Eco Project</strong>
</a> και τη ναυαρχίδα του πρωτοβουλία <a href="https://greekecoproject.gr/en/blue-halkidiki/blue-halkidiki-2025/">
  <strong>Blue Halkidiki 2025</strong>
</a>. Η συνεργασία αυτή στηρίζει άμεσα την Αποστολή της Ε.Ε. “Restore our Ocean and Waters”, φέρνοντας τη δράση στις τοπικές κοινωνίες της Χαλκιδικής και εμπλέκοντας τους πολίτες σε καθαρισμούς ακτών, ενημέρωση και μείωση της ρύπανσης από πλαστικά. </p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Μαζί, έχουμε θέσει έναν φιλόδοξο στόχο: να αφαιρέσουμε 20 τόνους πλαστικών απορριμμάτων από τις μεσογειακές ακτές — μια συμβολική αλλά και ουσιαστική πρόκληση που ενώνει εθελοντές, φορείς και καινοτόμες επιχειρήσεις.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Με τη χρήση της εφαρμογής <a href="https://remedies-for-ocean.eu/the-remedies-innovations-remedies-shoreline-marine-litter-app-v-1-0/">
  <strong>REMEDIES Shoreline Marine Litter App</strong>
</a>, οι εθελοντές συμβάλλουν πλέον ενεργά στη συλλογή δεδομένων, βοηθώντας την επιστήμη και τους φορείς χάραξης πολιτικής να κατανοήσουν καλύτερα τα πρότυπα ρύπανσης και να αναπτύξουν πιο αποτελεσματικές λύσεις. Έτσι, κάθε δράση καθαρισμού μετατρέπεται σε ένα ισχυρό κίνημα πολιτών-επιστημόνων, που συμβάλλει σε μια καθαρότερη, πιο βιώσιμη θάλασσα. </p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">«Diving Against Plastic Pollution»: Η καρδιά της Θεσσαλονίκης χτυπά για καθαρές θάλασσες</h2>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Στον Θερμαϊκό Κόλπο, η δράση «Diving Against Plastic Pollution» ένωσε εθελοντές, φορείς και φίλους της θάλασσας. Με την υποστήριξη του <a href="https://thessaloniki.gr/">
  <strong>Δήμου Θεσσαλονίκης</strong>
</a>, του <a href="https://greekecoproject.gr/en/">
  <strong>Greek Eco Project</strong>
</a> και του έργου <a href="https://remedies-for-ocean.eu/">
  <strong>REMEDIES</strong>
</a>, βοήθεια ισχυρών μαγνητών, συλλέξαμε μεταλλικά απορρίμματα από τον βυθό — από νομίσματα και κλειδιά έως καπάκια. </p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Κάθε αντικείμενο που ανασύραμε μας υπενθύμισε ότι η ρύπανση μας αφορά όλους, αλλά και ότι η λύση βρίσκεται στα χέρια μας.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Όπως δήλωσε η Μαρία Τρούλλου, Chief Operations Officer της alchemia-nova Greece, σε συνέντευξή της στο κανάλι ERT3:</p>

<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p class="wp-block-paragraph">«Θέτουμε μακροπρόθεσμους στόχους για το πώς τα πλαστικά μίας χρήσης θα αντικατασταθούν από έξυπνες, κυκλικές λύσεις.»</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Μέσα από αυτές τις δράσεις, το REMEDIES αποδεικνύει ότι η συνεργασία, η καινοτομία και η τοπική συμμετοχή μπορούν να συνθέσουν μια νέα κουλτούρα σεβασμού προς το περιβάλλον και τη θάλασσα. Μάθετε περισσότερα για τη δράση μας στη Θεσσαλονίκη στο άρθρο που δημοσιεύτηκε στο περιοδικό <a href="https://greenagenda.gr/thermaikos-ethelontes-psarepsan-me-magnites-kleidia-kermata-kai-kapakia-fotovideo/">

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Από τις τοπικές δράσεις στην πραγματική αλλαγή</h2>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Οι καθαρισμοί αυτοί δεν είναι απλώς μεμονωμένες δράσεις, είναι μέρος της ευρύτερης αποστολής μας για τη δημιουργία κυκλικών λύσεων, βιώσιμο τουρισμό και ανθεκτικά παράκτια οικοσυστήματα στη Μεσόγειο. </p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Συνδέοντας την ευρωπαϊκή καινοτομία με τη δράση των τοπικών κοινωνιών, το έργο REMEDIES δείχνει στην πράξη ότι η αλλαγή μπορεί να ξεκινήσει από τοπικό επίπεδο, με κάθε χέρι βοηθείας και κάθε ιδέα για ένα μέλλον χωρίς πλαστικά απορρίμματα. </p>

<h4 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Kerkennah Municipality</strong> &#8211; Tunisia</h4>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Project Name: No More Plastic in Kerkennah</strong></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Duration: 8 months</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Description: The project aims at reducing plastic waste by implementing three key initiatives. First, rainwater collected in school and public place tanks will be treated with desalination and reverse osmosis to provide safe drinking water, minimizing the use of PET bottles. Second, customized kraft paper bags will replace single-use plastic bags, with a focus on local manufacturing and home delivery options to raise awareness and reduce plastic consumption. Lastly, workshops will teach residents palm leaf weaving for creating sustainable shopping bags, blending traditional craftsmanship with eco-friendly practices. These efforts collectively promote environmental preservation and sustainable living.</p>



<h4 class="wp-block-heading"><strong><a href="https://www.mersin.bel.tr/haberler">Mersin Metropolitan Municipality</a>&nbsp;– Turkey</strong></h4>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>Project Name: Unite for Plastic-Free Coasts! (Up-FreeCoasts)</strong></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Duration: 8 months</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Description: Mersin Metropolitan Municipality aims to create a plastic-conscious community along the Mediterranean coast. The “Up-FreeCoasts” project will implement a zero-waste approach with closed-loop plastic recycling.

<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong>The challenge&nbsp;</strong></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We are thrilled to announce the launch of our beach clean-up movement. Our mission is simple&nbsp; yet profound: Organize 100+ beach clean-ups across the Mediterranean, with over 2,000&nbsp; citizens and collect more than 20 tonnes of plastic litter. Our target areas of operation are&nbsp; Koper, Sardinia, Cyclades, Porquerolles, and Morocco. A joint effort by a variety of&nbsp; organizations who lead the change locally. By showcasing our collective achievements, we aim&nbsp; to inspire others to join our cause and join the movement for a plastic litter-free future! </p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We join forces with like-minded individuals and organizations, to tackle the pressing issue of&nbsp; plastic pollution in our coastal regions. Through dedicated efforts and a shared vision, we&nbsp; believe that together, we can create a cleaner, healthier, and more sustainable environment for&nbsp; all. The clean-ups have already started in France, Slovenia, Italy and Greece, while the &nbsp;Lighthouse Training took place as part of REMEDIES in Venice and its lagoon, to define the&nbsp; strategy and the approach of our clean-ups.&nbsp;</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We offer workshops for litter characterization to equip participants and local leaders with the&nbsp; necessary knowledge and skills to make a meaningful impact during our clean-up activities. By&nbsp; understanding the different types of litter and their origins, we can contribute to the efforts of&nbsp; plastic litter prevention as well as more targeted and effective clean-up efforts.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><em>Getting access to collective results:&nbsp;</em></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The results of our clean-ups will be showcased in a specialized app, providing users with full&nbsp; access to the findings of clean-up initiatives throughout the Mediterranean. By becoming part of&nbsp; our movement, you will be contributing to a larger scope of data collection and analysis, helping&nbsp; us gain valuable insights into the extent of plastic pollution in the Mediterranean sea.&nbsp;</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><em>Advocating for a shared cause:&nbsp;</em></p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We form an active network of individuals and organizations contributing to a common Mission.&nbsp; Alongside our clean-up efforts, we are committed to raising awareness together, about the&nbsp; consequences of plastic pollution. Through targeted campaigns with the collaboration of&nbsp;prestigious and experienced organizations worldwide such as WWF, Planet Matters, Med&nbsp; Waves, Beyond Plastic Med, and Laskaridis Charitable Foundation, we will advocate for no&nbsp; plastic litter oceans beaches, encouraging responsible waste management practices and&nbsp; inspiring individuals to make sustainable choices. Together, we can make a real difference and&nbsp; protect our precious coastal ecosystems.&nbsp;</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">National Institute of Chemistry, in cooperation with 21 pan-European and 1 organisation from Africa started an ambitious innovation action project, &#8220;REMEDIES &#8211; Co-creating strong uptake of REMEDIES for the future of our oceans through deploying plastic litter valorisation and prevention pathways&#8217;. The REMEDIES is the first project selected from the newly created Horizon program Mission: Ocean, seas and waters. The European Commission allocated a budget of 7.999.644,75 Euros under its Horizon Europe programme (HORIZON-CL6- HORIZON-MISS-2021-OCEAN-03) to monitor and collect plastic litter, as well as to lower the quantity of (micro)plastic in the Mediterranean sea.&nbsp;</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1000" height="427" src="https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/image3.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-2142" srcset="https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/image3.jpg 1000w, https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/image3-590x252.jpg 590w, https://alchemia-nova.gr/websitepub/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/image3-768x328.jpg 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px" /></figure>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The European Union has launched a new Horizon Mission programme aiming to restore, protect and preserve the health of our ocean, seas and waters by 2030. The Mission is designed to deliver on the European Union’s 2030 quantified and measurable targets for protecting and restoring ecosystems and biodiversity with actions for zero pollution, and for decarbonisation as well as net greenhouse gas emissions reduction towards climate-neutrality, within the EU’s ocean, seas and waters. This Mission supports many of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs): in particular restoring our ocean and waters related actions will directly contribute to SDG 14 &#8211; Life below water and SDG 6 &#8211; Clean water and sanitation, in addition to the SDG13 &#8211; Climate action.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The overall objective of the REMEDIES project is to attract public interest for deploying remedies of our seas. The efforts to monitor and collect plastic litter, as well as to prevent the generation of litter in the first place, should become mainstream and an everyday part of our lives. REMEDIES is thus aiming to create a trend of plastic prevention by exploitation of traditional and modern channels and with the help of citizen’s science fostering co-creation of participatory processes building a more plastic-conscious society. To reach this goal, we need to identify appropriate wording and target “pain relievers” of each relevant stakeholder. These REMEDIES will be reached through the following specific objectives:</p>



<ul>
<li>To monitor macro- and microplastic waste in 8 Mediterranean areas.</li>



<li>To collect and valorise &gt;422 tons of plastic litter.</li>



<li>To prevent the further deposition of an equivalent of &gt;61 tons of plastic.</li>



<li>To reach &gt;250,000 people and activate &gt;2,000 citizens.</li>



<li>To scale and replicate zero-waste innovations in ~50 more sites.</li>
</ul>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The REMEDIES consortium (see Figure 2) is coordinated by the National Institute of Chemistry from Slovenia and builds its innovation actions around the three main pillars of monitoring plastic litter, its collection and valorisation, including the prevention of the distribution of non-degradable plastics. Twelve (4 per pillar) breakthrough innovations with be showcased in the next four years as the project focuses on technology readiness level from validation and demonstration in relevant environment to system prototype demonstration in operational environment (i.e. TRL 5-7). All innovative solutions will be tested in 9 demonstration sites in 8 Mediterranean countries. After validation, they will be scaled up in 33 new sites in order to implement them across the whole Mediterranean.</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">For our planet, the most promising aspect of REMEDIES is the activation of citizens, especially those affected by the plastic pollution directly on the shorelines. They will be informed, educated and guided to becoming plastic entrepreneurs. Through workshops and mentoring with a deeply rooted knowledge base and the right tools they will be able to start their own businesses focused on valorisation of collected plastic litter and the provision of zero-waste solutions to all actors (see Figure 3). Moreover, two types of open calls will be launched in order to boost the deployment of plastic litter collection and valorisation schemes as well as to push towards the development of zero-waste supply chains that will enhance the prevention of plastic litter. The calls will provide financial support to third parties in the form of grants. As required by call topic conditions, financial support will only be awarded to local and/or regional authorities from an associated region. The 1<sup>st</sup> call for Collection &amp; valorisation will be launched in September 2023 with a total budget €200.000 (cca 10 grants) and 2<sup>nd</sup> call Prevention &amp; zero waste in March 2024 with a total budget €300.000 (cca 15 grants).</p>
