A clean-up and awareness day at the Lago del Fuerte in Tandil brought together 30 lifeguard students and volunteers from the Argentine Red Cross last week.
The activity aimed to raise awareness about the care of aquatic ecosystems and generate concrete data for public policies.
How the Lago del Fuerte Clean-up in Tandil Was Conducted
The Argentine Red Cross – Tandil Branch organized the activity as part of the environmental module led by Professor Luz Kasperky.
Participants toured the lake’s shores last week.
The students not only collected waste but also sorted it during the tour.
They also conducted a thorough survey of the environment’s condition to document the current situation.
The data obtained will be analyzed and presented to municipal authorities.
This information will contribute to the development of care policies for the public promenade.
During the tour, future lifeguards and volunteers spoke with passersby.
They explained the importance of preserving the water body and caring for the natural environment.
The group was made up of members of the Red Cross Youth and 30 students from the School.
The teachers from the educational establishment also participated in the day.

The day was carried out within the framework of the “Huella Joven” program promoted by the Municipality of Tandil.
This initiative promotes youth participation in sustainable projects and environmental care.
The “Youth in Sustainable Movement” project also includes other concrete actions.
It also proposes the installation of environmental awareness signs at various strategic points in the city.
Additionally, bike racks will be installed in key locations to promote good practices.
The goal is to encourage the use of sustainable means of transport and strengthen community commitment.
The joint participation reflects the commitment of new generations to environmental protection.
These actions allow for reducing environmental impact and improving the quality of the environment.
The teamwork between volunteers and students demonstrated the promotion of sustainable habits.
The preservation of the public space was strengthened with this community initiative.
