The Green Sail initiative introduced the Climate Change Online Course designed to raise awareness and promote sustainable practices within the nautical tourism sector. This free, 1.5-hour training, aimed at students, yacht charter staff, and marine industry employees, covers the causes, effects, and risks of climate change, with a special focus on the Mediterranean region. It also explores mitigation and adaptation strategies for individuals, communities, and businesses. Delivered online in English and Croatian, the course supports Green Sail’s mission to foster environmentally responsible behaviour in maritime tourism.
