Page 84 - Climate Compliance

Together with the National Parks, Rivers and Beaches Authority, the Forestry
Department and the Global Environment Facility (GEF) Small Grant Facility,
84 RVA restored the trail and taught in schools about the importance of protecting
biodiversity giving lessons about climate change, biodiversity, climate smart
agriculture and ecotourism in eight North Leeward communities. Ten persons
were hired to clear the trail, remove logs, make look out spots, benches and

repair steps. Fifteen information signs were also created to provide visitors with
directions, advice and information.

The Leeward trail is approximately 5 miles (8 km) long and offers visitors breath-
taking panoramic views of the surrounding land and seascape, as well as close
encounters with flora and fauna.
