On Saturday, May 16th close to a hundred San Pedro Town residents joined in the global Hands Across the Sand initiative. This momentous event is held in destinations across the planet Earth to “draw a line in the sand,” and say “NO” to dirty fossil fuel projects, as well as call for a shift to clean, renewable energy like offshore wind and solar power.
We love our Belize Barrier Reef and the azure Caribbean Waters that provide for us in many ways. So we joined hands on beaches, across bridges, along sea walls and in other public areas to stand in solidarity against offshore oil development in Belize’s economically important marine environment.
