We feel that it’s important to engage people with environmental issues in a fun and hands-on manner. During the Whale of a Time Workshop participants explore environmental issues we're facing today and the impact on endangered species and ecosystems. Everybody is inspired to find solutions on how we can contribute in a positive way to support our planet and community wellbeing. As part of the workshop people are encouraged to pledge to do something to help preserve wildlife and balance our environmental footprint on the planet. The creative and educational workshop makes a big difference to the local community and the planet.
