IsLABentura has promoted a reforestation activity this Thursday morning in order to improve its commitment to sustainability and reduce its carbon footprint. The team of scriptwriters, made up of 14 professionals, has collaborated with the Foresta Foundation and have planted island endemisms in the Bosquecillo de Haría. This space is the only natural forest mass on the island.
During their intervention they have planted up to five species from Lanzarote: dragon tree, wild olive tree, guaydil, tarajal and tajjinaste. With this proposal, IsLABentura embarks on the challenge of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in search of greater sustainable management in the audiovisual sector, contributing to the preservation of the cultural, natural and human heritage of the Canary Islands.
In this action, the IsLABentura team has been accompanied, on behalf of the Haría City Council, by its mayor Alfredo Villalba and councilors Marcos Lemes and Alberto de León. Also the co-organizers of the activity, Sergio Armas, manager of the Foresta Foundation, and Alberto Rodríguez, educator at the Máguez Nature Classroom.
The scriptwriters and tutors of IsLABentura Canarias are these days in Lanzarote, together with representatives of powerful production companies, to present their projects and attend the awards ceremony of this second edition, which will be on Saturday in Jameos del Agua.
IsLABentura Canarias is an initiative of the Canary Islands Institute for Cultural Development of the Government of the Canary Islands that has the financing of the European Union through its Next Generation Funds and the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan, managed by way of call for subsidies to laboratories and incubators of the ICAA, of the Ministry of Culture and Sports.
