24 October 2009 - 8:00am

350 Persons Planting 350 Trees in 350 seconds! This is intended to be a Public Spectacle whereby persons become curious and aware of the significance of the number 350. Thus its hoped the creation of this Carbon Sink will be duplicated throughout Barbados to assist with creation of ecosystems. Much of vegetation which is home to the Green Monkey in Barbados is being destroyed to provide housing solutions. This causes migration of Green Monkeys to areas of human habitation and increased roadkill due to their search for food.

Caribbean Climate Change Day of Action will be taking place on October 24th.,2009. The main event will be 350 Persons Planting 350 Trees in 350 seconds at 8:00am at Morgan Lewis Hill,St Andrew,Barbados.
