Affi, 11 ottobre 2021 – La baia di Garda si colora di vele. BTS Biogas, leader tecnologico nello sviluppo e nella costruzione di impianti biogas e biometano, in collaborazione con la Lega Navale Italiana sezione di Garda organizza la prima edizione della BTS Green Cup. La competizione - patrocinata dal Comune di Garda, dal Kyoto Club e dall’Associazione Plastic Free - si propone di rafforzare il messaggio della sostenibilità nel mondo della vela e nelle comunità locali.

La mattina del 16 ottobre, monotipi e imbarcazioni da crociera e da diporto saranno protagonisti della regata di 14 miglia nautiche che vedrà gli equipaggi affrontarsi in una stimolante sfida per aggiudicarsi il primo trofeo dedicato alla sostenibilità ambientale. Seguirà una veleggiata, di 9 miglia nautiche, dedicata alle vele bianche, ovvero a randa e fiocco tipiche delle abituali navigazioni diportistiche, per favorire l’accesso alla competizione anche ad equipaggi formati da famiglie e appassionati. La BTS Green Cup sarà coordinata da giudici certificati della Federazione Italiana Vela.

Attraverso questa iniziativa, BTS Biogas e Lega Navale Italiana di Garda vogliono coinvolgere e stimolare gli sportivi, le istituzioni, le imprese e le associazioni ad una riflessione sulle principali problematiche ambientali per creare una maggiore consapevolezza sui temi della sostenibilità, sul problema della plastica che minaccia i nostri fiumi, laghi e mari e i loro ecosistemi, e sulla necessità di impegnarsi e fare di più per proteggere l’ambiente. In quest’ottica, Plastic Free, il giorno della manifestazione, organizzerà una raccolta di plastica e rifiuti nel territorio del Comune di Garda.

BTS Biogas in tutte le sue attività si ispira, infatti, ai principi del Programma delle Nazioni Unite per lo sviluppo sostenibile che si basano sulla compatibilità tra lo sviluppo delle attività economiche e la salvaguardia dell’ambiente. Con i suoi impianti il Gruppo è un tassello imprescindibile dell’economia circolare perché produce energia rinnovabile e valorizza degli scarti trasformandoli in una risorsa. Riporta infatti in natura il materiale organico di risulta dalle attività umane come gli scarti alimentari e agricoli e i sottoprodotti organici industriali.

Siamo orgogliosi di lanciare, insieme alla Lega Navale Italiana di Garda, la BTS Green Cup, un’iniziativa che interpreta perfettamente i valori di sostenibilità e attenzione all’ambiente presenti nel DNA della nostra azienda che da più di 20 anni opera nel settore delle rinnovabili. – ha dichiarato Franco Lusuriello, CEO di BTS Biogas - Crediamo che praticare la vela non sia semplicemente dedicarsi a uno sport, ma significhi soprattutto abbracciare una filosofia di vita che mette al primo posto la natura e l’ambiente. Abbiamo scelto di sostenere questa disciplina sportiva per rafforzare la consapevolezza che ciascuno di noi può fare concretamente qualcosa per salvaguardare il pianeta in cui viviamo e lasceremo in eredità alle generazioni future. La BTS Green Cup, non è quindi solo una competizione velica, ma è l’inizio di un percorso per continuare a diffondere la cultura della sostenibilità

L’impegno per la tutela dell’ambiente marino e delle acque interne è uno dei valori fondamentali della Lega Navale Italiana ed anche noi a Garda siamo sempre in prima linea per questo. In continuità con le manifestazioni Robot@Garda e il nostro supporto al progetto SmartGardaLake del Dipartimento di Informatica dell’Università di Verona, abbiamo pensato ad un grande evento che coinvolgesse tutte le barche a vela del maggior lago d’Italia - ha dichiarato Fiorenzo Fasoli, Direttore Sportivo di LNI sez. di Gardail velista utilizza un propulsore ecosostenibile per eccellenza, il vento, ed insieme a BTS abbiamo la possibilità di diffondere un messaggio sui biocombustibili e la salvaguardia ambientale anche per chi vive il nostro lago in modo diverso”.

Se vogliamo raggiungere l’obiettivo europeo di tagliare le emissioni climalteranti entro il 2030 del 55% dobbiamo allargare il paradigma della sostenibilità ambientale a tutti gli ambiti della nostra vita. Grazie a BPT Biogas e alla Lega Navale, con BTS Green CUP Italiana possiamo rafforzare questo messaggio di consapevolezza anche nel mondo dello sport, e della vela in particolare, attraverso il coinvolgimento di sportivi giovani e adulti e di associazioni del settore” - ha dichiarato Sergio Andreis, Direttore di Kyoto Club.

Plastic Free si propone di informare e sensibilizzare le persone sulla pericolosità della plastica, in particolare quella monouso, che non solo inquina bensì uccide gli animali. - ha dichiarato Giovanna Leardini di Plastic FreeLe uscite dei volontari a caccia di rifiuti nelle spiagge, nelle città e sulle montagne sono una tra le tante iniziative che organizziamo per coinvolgere le persone, le istituzioni e anche le aziende in una sinergia concreta finalizzata al rispetto del territorio. E proprio in questo contesto si inserisce la nostra collaborazione per la BTS Green Cup, un trofeo organizzato da BTS Biogas, realtà aziendale da sempre attenta ai concetti di sostenibilità e tutela ambientale”.

La BTS Green Cup è sostenuta da eccellenze italiane quali Vini Tinazzi, Bottoli, S.Martino, San Nicolò, Tonno Coalma, Allo Scudo food&drinks e POG (Produttori Olivicoli Gardesani).

The launch of the first edition of the BTS Green Cup

The sailing competition organised by BTS Biogas and the Garda section of the Italian Naval League, focusing on environmental sustainability, will take place in the waters of Lake Garda on 16 October 2021

The initiative is sponsored by the Municipality of Garda, the Kyoto Club and the Plastic Free Association

Affi, 11 ottobre 2021 – The bay of Garda will soon be full of sails. BTS Biogas, a technological leader in the development and construction of biogas and biomethane plants, in collaboration with the Garda section of the Italian Naval League, is launching the first edition of the BTS Green Cup. The competition, organised with the patronage of the Municipality of Garda, the Kyoto Club and the Plastic Free Association, aims to raise awareness of the importance of sustainability within the sailing world and in local communities.

On the morning of 16 October, monotype yachts, cruisers and pleasure boats will be the stars of the 14-nautical mile regatta where crews will compete in a stimulating challenge to win the first trophy dedicated to environmental sustainability. This will be followed by a 9-nautical-mile sailing race, dedicated to small crafts such as those with one mainsail and jib, typical of normal yachting, allowing amateur crews made up of families and enthusiasts to also take part. The BTS Green Cup will be coordinated by certified judges from the Italian Sailing Federation.

Through this initiative, BTS Biogas and Garda section of the Italian naval league hope to encourage sportsmen, institutions, companies and associations to reflect on the main environmental issues and raise awareness of the importance of sustainability, the plastic problem which threatens our rivers, lakes and seas and their ecosystems, and the need to do more to protect the environment. With this in mind, Plastic Free, on the day of the event, will organise a plastic and waste collection in the territory of the Municipality of Garda.

In all its activities, BTS Biogas is inspired by the principles of the United Nations Programme for Sustainable Development, which are based on the compatibility between economic development and environmental protection. BTS Biogas’s plants are an essential part of the circular economy which produce renewable energy and turn waste into a resource, returning to nature the organic material resulting from human activities such as food and agricultural waste and industrial organic by-products.

Together with the Garda Italian Naval League, we are proud to launch the BTS Green Cup. This initiative embodies the values of sustainability and environmental protection present in the DNA of our company, which has been operating in the renewable energy sector for more than 20 years,” said Franco Lusuriello, CEO of BTS Biogas. "We believe that sailing is not simply a sport, but a life philosophy which puts nature and the environment first. We have chosen to support this sport to reinforce the message that we can all actively contribute to safeguarding the planet we live on and bequeathing it to future generations. The BTS Green Cup, therefore, is not just a sailing competition, but is the start of a journey to spread the culture of sustainability

The commitment to the protection of the marine environment and inland waters is one of the fundamental values of the Italian Naval League and we at Garda are always in the front line. In addition to the Robot@Garda events and our support for the SmartGardaLake project run by the Department of Computer Science at the University of Verona, we wanted to organise a great event involving all the sailing boats of the largest lake in Italy," declared Fiorenzo Fasoli, Sports Director of the Garda section of the Italian Naval League. “Sailors use an eco-sustainable propulsion system par excellence, the wind, and together with BTS we have the opportunity to spread a message about biofuels and environmental protection to those outside the sailing community”.

If we want to achieve the European target of a 55% reduction in climate-changing emissions by 2030, we need to make environmental sustainability a priority which spreads across all areas of our lives. Thanks to BTS Biogas and the Italian Naval League, we can use the BTS Green Cup to reinforce this message in the world of sport, and sailing in particular, through the involvement of sporting associations and sportspeople of any age" said Sergio Andreis, Director of Kyoto Club.

Plastic Free aims to educate and raise awareness of the dangers of plastic with a particular focus on single-use plastic, which kills animals as well as polluting our land,” declared Giovanna Leardini of Plastic Free. “Volunteer clean- ups taking place on beaches, in urban areas and in the countryside are some of the many initiatives we organise to involve and bring together people, institutions and companies with the goal of increasing respect for the land. We are therefore delighted to be part of the BTS Green Cup, organised by BTS Biogas, a company that has always been focused on sustainability and environmental protection”.

The BTS Green Cup is supported by the finest Italian names such as Vini Tinazzi, Bottoli, S.Martino, San Nicolò, Tonno Coalma, Allo Scudo food&drinks and POG (Garda olive producers).
