Before protesting access join a clean-up
Dear Editor,
It’s that simple, protesters will never see the magnitude of filth and debris left by Jamaicans with free access to beaches. Not even the seafood is safe, especially with no bathroom access on many of these so-called free beaches.
Nobody is holding Jamaican people accountable for their waste.
Nobody is educating Jamaicans about the environment and how their poor habits impact the very seafood they enjoy.
Instead of joining the noise about beach access, go join a beach clean up!
