from GREY to GREEN

FROM GREY TO GREEN Rebuilding the city using natural elements

This project is trying to help the city of Mangalia to became a more suited holiday destination by implementing new tourist attractions(beaach voleyball elds, beach boardwalk concert area etc.) and help reconstruct the shorline that’s shrinking constantly (use methods to expand the beach and protecte it with the help of breakwaters) and by raising more awarness for the environment (creat underwater maritime museum, increase the procentage of planted spaces in the city.

Currently, even thought the city has potential, because of the lack of interest, Mangalia is not a proper place for spending the summer vacation. But before taking care of that aspect we must focus on the danger that threatens the surrounding nature (oods and shrinking beaches caused by the impact of human activity).

Flooding risk present

Flooding risk IF NOT

“We have to consider that if we continue in this rate in the near future we will end up with no beaches at all.

In the past few years, even thought the autorities knew that the beaches are shrinking, they ignore it and they did’t take any kind of measurements toprevent it.”
