Transat Jacques Vabre (Le Havre – Bahia) - 10 Nov 2007
This world-renowned & unique Sailing race has done quite a bit over the years in terms of both reducing the race’s eco footprint and encouraging those involved to take part in eco initiatives surrounding the event. This year’s race went even further with each navigator signing an official charter, initiating a Forest replanting program in Bahia that will offset the CO2 emissions and launch the “More for Bahia – Mission” (Helping respect sustainable development criteria in coffee farms & sending two students on a mission to Brazilian coffee farms).
Those of us that have sailed know that the values of sailing go far beyond the lakes, bays and oceans. Popular professional events such as the Transat Jacques Vabre show that every sport is starting to take part in this global challenge!
