“Portugal was founded in the 12th century in the northern city of Porto so there’s plenty for history buffs here. The old town is listed as a UNESCO world heritage site. And Portugal’s second largest city is a mecca for shoe and leather goods lovers too, as the country’s famous shoemaking industry dates back to medieval times. In fact, the city is leading the way in Europe for sustainable footwear and leather goods. Last month producers signed the first “Green Pact” an initiative from the industry’s trade organisation APICCAPS and shoe research center, CTCP. Companies that sign the Green Pact promise to work in alternative ways to reach the goals of the United Nations and Europe, to halve carbon emissions by 2030 and achieve net-zero carbon emissions in 2050.”
