Sharing. This is the operative word for the second edition of the “Climb & Clean” project, which aims to raise young people’s awareness of the need to protect and respect the environment.

Conceived by mountaineers Matteo Della Bordella and Massimo Faletti, Climb & Clean is back in spring 2022 in an expanded edition that involves an increasing number of local organizations, but especially of new generations. The participation of children, who together with Matteo and Massimo will explore the natural world and see what’s out of place in this environment, is fundamental. A polite and respectful gaze that, as they grow up, will become automatic.

The content isn’t changing, but the message we want to spread is taking on even more substance: when you’re pursuing your passion for the great outdoors, remember to leave the places you’ve been better than how you found them. Don’t litter, and pick up and pack out any trash that you find. It’s a small gesture, but the sum of many small actions leads to certain change.
