These meadows play a crucial role in marine ecosystems by enhancing biodiversity, providing nursery habitats for marine species, and contributing to carbon absorption in coastal waters. Marine biologist Lewis Stagnetto of the Nautilus Project commented,“ Restoring seagrass in Gibraltar’ s waters symbolises hope, a living reminder that with science, community, and perseverance, we can reverse damage and revive the natural balance of our marine environment.” During his visit, Minister Cortes expressed his support for the initiative, highlighting its potential to enhance marine biodiversity and promote environmental sustainability. He commended the Nautilus Project and its partners for their efforts, reaffirming the continued support of the Ministry for the Environment and the Department of the Environment and Climate Change.

Be Healthy: OTWO Launches 2025 / 2026 Sustainable Transport Campaign
This year, OTWO’ s Sustainable Transport Campaign takes on a new and inspiring focus, Be Healthy. Building on the success of last year’ s Sustainable Transport Promotion series, which encouraged the community to explore greener travel options through initiatives like Best by Bike, Walk the Rock, and Bus for Us, this year’ s campaign puts the spotlight on how sustainable mobility and personal wellbeing go hand in hand. Our aim is simple but powerful: to remind everyone that the way we move has a direct impact on both our health and our planet. In Gibraltar, where short distances make active travel easy and achievable, every step or pedal stroke can contribute to a cleaner environment, and a healthier you.
El biólogo marino Lewis Stagnetto, del Proyecto Nautilus, comentó: « La restauración de las praderas marinas en las aguas de Gibraltar simboliza la esperanza, un recordatorio vivo de que con la ciencia, la comunidad y la perseverancia podemos revertir el daño y revivir el equilibrio natural de nuestro medio ambiente marino ». Durante su visita, el ministro Cortés expresó su apoyo a la iniciativa, destacando su potencial para mejorar la biodiversidad marina y promover la sostenibilidad medioambiental. Elogió al Proyecto Nautilus y a sus socios por sus esfuerzos, reafirmando el apoyo continuo del Ministerio de Medio Ambiente y del Departamento de Medio Ambiente y Cambio Climático.
Be Healthy: OTWO lanza la campaña de transporte sostenible 2025 / 2026
Este año, la campaña de transporte sostenible de OTWO adopta un nuevo y estimulante enfoque: Be Healthy. Basándose en el éxito de la serie « Promoción del transporte sostenible » del año pasado, que animaba a la comunidad a explorar opciones de transporte más ecológicas a través de iniciativas como « Best by Bike », « Walk the Rock » y « Bus for Us », la campaña de este año se centra en cómo la movilidad sostenible y el bienestar personal van de la mano. Nuestro objetivo es sencillo, pero poderoso: recordar a todo el mundo que la forma en que nos desplazamos tiene un impacto directo tanto en nuestra salud como en nuestro planeta. En Gibraltar, donde las distancias cortas facilitan y hacen posible el transporte activo, cada paso o pedaleo puede contribuir a un medio ambiente más limpio y a una vida más saludable. La campaña « Be Healthy » llega en un momento crucial. Con la creciente preocupación por las enfermedades relacionadas con el estilo de vida, como la diabetes y las cardiopatías, está
