to jump on the table

hello my name is Nael and with my

partner Nicolas we're gonna do the 4L trophy this year

The 4L trophy is a raid that take place in Morocco from north to middle of it with

only 4 L cars

there are old cars that are very reliable very easy to fix and

modify

they also used on more hostile environments such as snow or sand.

So this is a trip that's gonna take place during three weeks

we're going to first

drive from here where we live to Biaritz

which is city in France where we're

going to get checked on the car and meet the other people coming along with us

and we're going to drive down to the south of Spain travel by boat to Morocco

and start the raid adventure there

there is a bit more than 1000 cars going on

this adventure with us meaning that

we are about 2,000 2,200 people

because each car is equipped with one pilot and one co-pilot

once we're in Morocco we've

got six steps to do in the less kilometer as possible

the only trick here is that we don't get a GPS

we do have a map and a compass and that's

where our scuba diving skills are going to be handy because if you didn't know I

I'm a dive guide

I have been trained to take people on underwater adventures

So I need to be able to navigate with the compass

the specificity of this

adventure is that it's also a solidary raid

meaning that we're going to be

giving money to two organizations

the first one is the Red Cross in France

we're gonna mainly give food and money

and the second one isEnfants du désert

children of the desert that are building school and giving school supplies and

stuff to kids in need in Morocco

and to add on

top of that we decided to make a zero carbon emission raid meaning that every

carbon emission that we're gonna make are going to be either lowered

as much as we can

or compensated

if you want to have a bit more about that

see the calculation and stuff there is a link to a folder Google Drive link on

the description which shows exactly how we calculated everything

the main carbon

emission is going to be the car obviously

we are going to drive I think

8,000 kilometres or something like that so obviously this is going to

be there we cannot decrease it

The second emission is paper with the road books

hopefully they reuse it or they'll try to recycle it but we can't know so we're

going to compensate

third one is going to be the stickers on the car this is

quite an expensive adventure

I'm gonna make a video about how to prepare and

the entire trip how much money you need to have and such

but because it is expensive

we have sponsors that paid to put their ad on the car

and stickers are

made of plastic that if they're not recycled properly they're going to emit

carbon so that's gonna be accounted for as well

and the one you might not be

thinking of is YouTube and emails

if you upload something on the internet it's

gonna go on a server it's gonna be stocked somewhere

and that need cooling and

electricity and this account for a lot of carbon emission in the world so if

you want to lower your carbon emission you can delete old emails from eight

years ago or make sure that everything you put on a cloud is useful

To compensate our carbon emission we selected two websites that were

trustworthy because if you go on the internet you might see a lot of...

I wanna say greenwashing people that delivers green certificate

when they are not doing anything

so the two with we chose are Reforest'Action which is a French

website slash company that plant trees

on places not only in France but places that

need more trees

and that also creates work for people that might not have one at the moment

and the second one foundation good Planet which is a website

that also allows you to calculate the carbon emission of your trips so we had

a comparison between our calculation and this website to make sure that we were

on the same page and we're going to overcompensate that

just to make sure

that we're going on carbon

As I mentioned before we are going to have

some donation to Enfants du désert

and to do that we decided to give only

secondhand stuff not crappy stuff but

for example I had to go through my

school supplies to when I was a teenager and a child was my mom a lot of stuff

was still good to go so they up there

and I had a co-worker giving her some

clothes from her child that they are not wearing anymore but she decided to give

them to me so that other people can enjoy it

I had a co-worker giving me

some pencil some backpacks and stuff so

we are making sure that nothing it's

emitted more than what that was created before and thigs are I reused and stuff

So as I post this video a we are probably going to be on the road

three weeks if you want to follow the raid there is a link to a direct scores

and events that going to happen here or in the description

And for the next weeks we are going to post the preparation of the car

spoiler alerts

where the 13th of February we are leaving on the 17th and the car is still not ready

so if you want to know how we pull that off and what happened you can subscribe

to our YouTube channel click the little bell to make sure to be

notified when we post the next videos

And a video is gonna appear here

We are very excited to go on this adventure

Nicolas has dreamed of this adventure

since I don't know he was 15 so

it's gonna be fun!

see you next time bye bye
