Framework
The Azores archipelago, due to its genesis, location and isolation, presents today a great diversity in species, landscapes or habitats. This makes the Azores unique and holds countless riches, some of which are threatened and of great conservation importance, with which its residents come into contact on a daily basis. Over the decades, various efforts have been made by various entities to ensure the continuity and resilience of various species and the sustainability of their habitats.
Marine litter has become a global problem, with considerable socio-economic impact, harming fishing, tourism and bathing areas. In addition, there are other threats that affect marine biodiversity, especially seabirds, contributing to their being the most threatened group of birds in the world. This is the case of Light Pollution, a silent threat whose disruptive effects have been evident in Azorean Seabirds, such as the Cory's Shearwater.
