URGENT CALL TO ACTION: SAFEGUARDING THE CLEANLINESS OF OUR COMMUNITY
Monday 4th March 2024

Antigua and Barbuda's National Parks Authority calls for heightened vigilance and community engagement in preserving the cleanliness and beauty of our environment. The recent surge in illegal dumping in the Cobbs and Falmouth area threatens the hard-won progress achieved through months of dedicated clean-up efforts by the Authority.

Recognizing the intrinsic value of a pristine environment and the importance of national pride in its preservation, the National Parks Authority, launched a concerted clean-up campaign which has been ongoing for several months. This initiative not only aims to beautify our surroundings but also to cultivate a collective sense of responsibility towards our natural environment.

The Honourable E. P Chet Greene, Minister of Foreign Affairs, Agriculture, Trade & Barbuda Affairs, and Parliamentary representative of the St. Paul constituency with direct responsibility for the National Parks Authority, emphasized the significance of environmental stewardship, stating, "Preserving and respecting our environment is a shared national endeavor. The designation of a UNESCO World Heritage site underscores the global importance of our efforts in all areas of preservation within the National Park. It is imperative that we embed a culture of environmental care and national pride in our collective consciousness."

The National Parks Authority urges all residents to actively participate in maintaining cleanliness and to promptly report any instances of illegal dumping. Residents are also urged to diligently follow the designated garbage collection schedule, ensuring timely disposal on the allocated days and times. By fostering a culture of environmental responsibility and civic engagement, we can safeguard our island's natural treasures for generations to come.
