GEORGETOWN, Guyana, CMC – A conservation group says it has secured fund to revive an area in St. Vincent and the Grenadines (SVG) where a failed
marina project has devastated the marine ecosystem.
The project in Union Island, in St. Vincent and the Grenadines, was abandoned almost 20 years ago and residents of the island as well as conservationists say it has disrupted the water currents and destroyed the ecosystem.
“It destroyed the whole ecological area there. All the marine life there died,” Orisha Joseph, administration and communication officer of Sustainable Grenadines Inc., told a ceremony on Tuesday to launch “Beneath the Surface – Mapping Union Island”, a Local Voices in Climate Change video, during Caribbean Week of Agriculture (CWA)
