Emergency Action: Protect Mangroves and Fishermen / Trinidad

Sign the petition in support of environmental groups and fishing families in Trinidad and Tobago who oppose construction of a steel mill and industrial port. (4 Dec 2008) Global Response

*** ACTION ALERT ***

4 December 2008

Please take a moment TODAY to support environmental groups and fishing families in Trinidad and Tobago who oppose construction of a steel mill and industrial port. These projects threaten marine and mangrove habitat and the health and livelihoods of hundreds of families that depend on the local fishery.

Trinidad's president has agreed to meet with environmentalists on Monday, Dec 8. They are trying to get as many signatures as possible on their petition to present to the president. It only takes a minute to sign the petition.

 

Signatures are needed TODAY. Thanks for supporting this local movement for environmental protection and environmental justice in the Caribbean.
