Earth Day celebrations around the world have taken on an even more significant focus considering the many issues that our environment is currently facing. In Trinidad, the authority given the function of protecting this country’s environment is the Environmental Management Authority (EMA).
The EMA’s managing director, Hayden Romano believes that environmental days are significant because they present the opportunity to continue building awareness of the damage being done by humans and allow all stakeholders to spotlight affirmative actions that they can take. Most of all it helps to highlight the fact that we all must become stewards of our environment.
