Environmental justice and protection are non-negotiable. NEPA’s mediation in the Rio Cobre spill case weakens accountability and Jamaica’s environmental safeguards. Act now: Call for transparency and stronger enforcement. Raise your voice and spread awareness! #SaveRioCobre

Higher fines for breaches are good, but enforcement is key! Jamaica needs updated, streamlined environmental laws to truly protect its natural resources. #EnvironmentalProtection jamaica-gleaner.com/article/letter…

If not bauxite, then what? Jamaica’s future can’t be another extractive industry. It’s time to reimagine a resilient, inclusive, and sustainable economy. #BeyondExtraction jamaica-gleaner.com/article/focus/…

Land clearance near Fort Rocky in the Palisadoes-Port Royal Protected Area—despite clear rules against it. Now that the damage is done, what’s next? Who will be held responsible?

Land clearance started in the evening of March 3 and they were issued a notice to stop the next day. But the works continued. It happened very quickly.
