Milos hosts ECOPOLIS Environmental Sensitivity Awards 2018
- Written by E.Tsiliopoulos
The non-governmental organization ECOCITY, for the 14th consecutive year, presented the ECOPOLIS Environmental Sensitivity Awards, on Saturday, 2 June.
The Award Ceremony for 2018 was held with great success on the Greek island of Milos, something that has its own symbolism as the island is known for its geothermal activity and resources.
In total, 27 awards were given this year to people that have contributed significantly to the promotion of environmental sensitivity through their disciplines.
All the awards were accompanied by the statuette created from stone lava and copper by the young geologist & artist from Milos Sophia Trapatselis. It is a symbolic composition that represents the protected flora and the unique geophysical identity of Milos.
