Last month, the World Plogging Championship – an event that combines physical activity with respect for the environment - took place in Genoa, Italy.
It featured an opening ceremony in which contestants wielded their national flags, in a special parade featuring flag bearers from Italy, Algeria, Argentina, Ghana, Japan, Greece, Mexico, the Netherlands, Portugal, United Kingdom, Senegal, Serbia, Spain, Sweden, and Uruguay. Contestants ran through the paths of the Ligurian main city, bonding together for environmental awareness as they picked up litter.
