THE SKATEPARK IS FINISHED! 😆😆😆 It has been a long journey, nearly 4 years for Flipping Youth and much longer for the @sk876_ community, but Kingston Jamaica finally has a skatepark for the youth to ride freely and enjoy. Many people have kindly given their time and energy to help push this campaign forwards, but the project has been driven at the core by our fellow members of the Freedom Skatepark Foundation: @concretejunglefoundation @seprodfoundation @sandalsfdn @tmrw.tday 🙏🏼 The Concrete Jungle Foundation mobilised a 25+ strong team of international volunteers and worked tirelessly around the clock to build this park over the past 8 weeks, despite the extra challenges of dealing with a pandemic. Absolutely remarkable commitment by those who watched the final flights leave Jamaica whilst they continued shovelling concrete, all in the spirit of giving back to skateboarding 🙌 The skatepark wouldn’t have been possible without the generosity of our supporters @theskateroom @newlineskateparks @pariskateculture @japremix @tankweld @jamnesiasurf AND our fantastic apprentices on the Planting Seeds Programme 🌱 @kaylawheelerr @froggboss @ronald_the_superman_junior @k.g_kushh @justjeffcrossley 🚧 NEXT PHASE: Youth Centre construction! The foundations are already in along with the sewage works and the containers are being modified off-site, so watch this space for updates in the coming weeks 😬 @vansskate @supremenewyork @ncbfoundation @soledxb @aecom @deadlyofficial @commonwealth_ftgg Flipping Youth embarked on this journey after being inspired by the tragic loss of one of the original Jamaican skateboarders who dreamt of a skatepark in Kingston, Andre “Wildfiyah” Thompson. We know you will be looking down on this creation and giving us that big smile of yours. This was for you ❤️💚💛 1989-2009 (at Kingston, Jamaica) https://www.instagram.com/p/B--H9ILFpAf/?igshid=x90hgufr63aq

Every time we visit an island we make it a point to support the locals and find ways to donate to the people in need. We bought this painting from an artist on the beach. He created this masterpiece right before our eyes. 👨🏻‍🎨 The Sandals Foundation @sandalsfdn is an excellent place to donate money or supplies! Drop off school supplies, medical supplies, clothes, games, etc. right to the front desk! 📚 #packforapurpose #sandalsfoundation #supportlocals #giveback #bethegood #travelwithchelax #chelaxadventures (at Sandals Grande St. Lucian) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIZZMpRscsJ/?igshid=fu3hlw0lbr3o

Sandals Resorts International Announces First Phase of Elimination of Single-Use Plastic from Resorts Across Seven Caribbean Islands

~Company expands ongoing commitment to environmental sustainability

Sandals Resorts International Announces First Phase of Elimination of Single-Use Plastic from Resorts Across Seven Caribbean Islands

MONTEGO BAY, Jamaica, Sept. 17, 2018 — Today, on the first day of Pollution Prevention Week, Sandals Resorts International (SRI) announced that all 19 Sandals and Beaches Resorts across seven Caribbean islands – including Jamaica, the Bahamas, St. Lucia, Antigua, Grenada, Barbados and Turks & Caicos – will eliminate the 21,490,800 single-use plastic straws and stirrers used across the resorts each year by November 1, 2018. Eco-friendly paper straws will be available upon request.

“Love is at the crux of all Sandals Resorts, and this love extends to the oceans and communities around them,” said Adam Stewart, Deputy Chairman of Sandals Resorts International. “We care deeply about our commitment to preserving both marine wildlife and human health within the many beautiful islands we’re connected to. Eliminating single-use plastic straws and stirrers is only the beginning of our journey toward helping create a plastic-free sea in the region we call home,” he added.

Sandals Resorts is committed to moving beyond single-use plastic. Through a new partnership with Oceanic Global, a non-profit focused on providing solutions to issues impacting our oceans, the company is conducting an audit – both front and back of house – to determine a roadmap to the elimination of single-use plastic across its resorts. The audit will be conducted in accordance to guidelines outlined in Oceanic Global’s industry-specific sustainability toolkit, The Oceanic Standard. Following the elimination of single-use plastic straws and stirrers, Sandals Resorts International will explore opportunities to eliminate other plastic across its resorts by September 2019. The company has already made headway with the elimination of plastic laundry bags and plastic bags throughout gift shops.

“We’re thrilled to partner with Sandals Resorts International, the first all-inclusive brand to join our mission,” said Lea d’Auriol, Founder of Oceanic Global. “Seventy percent of our world is made up of oceans. It’s critical that we take steps to protect this precious resource – and Sandals is sending the message to companies with a major presence along ocean shores that they have a responsibility to take action, and that preserving ocean health can be both efficient and effective,” she added.

This initiative is part of a larger effort to reduce plastic waste in the Caribbean region, where the Caribbean Sea connects more than 700 islands and coastlines that draw more than 30 million visitors each year. Sandals Resorts is already invested in environmental sustainability. The Sandals Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Sandals Resorts International, has intensified efforts to reduce plastic pollution in the Caribbean and educate communities on the dangers plastic pollution poses to the environment, health and tourism. The Sandals Foundation’s recent initiatives include distributing reusable water bottles in schools across the Caribbean to reduce the use of disposable bottles among school children, delivering reusable tote bags to supermarkets across the region, and instituting a Solid Waste Reduction Project in Jamaica’s South Coast to clean up the communities and educate residents on how to properly manage their waste.

“Plastic pollution is one of the leading environmental issues in the Caribbean. Sandals and Beaches Resorts are rooted in oceanfront communities, and we are committed to protecting our marine wildlife, developing effective conservation practices, and teaching the next generation the importance of caring for their communities,” said Heidi Clarke, Executive Director of the Sandals Foundation.

Sandals and Beaches Resorts has long held environmental sustainability as part of its core mission, earning its place as the only hotel chain in the world to have all of its resorts certified by the EarthCheck benchmarking and certification program, with nine resorts currently holding Master Certification. Additionally, throughout its history, Sandals has garnered sustainability-driven accolades such as the CHA/AMEX Caribbean Environmental Award for Green Hotel of the Year, the American Academy of Hospitality Sciences Green Six Star Diamond Award, and the PADI Green Star Award. Each resort has a dedicated Environment, Health and Safety Manager charged with implementing and managing sustainable programs, including but not limited to the installation of solar water heaters, the retro-fitting of lighting and equipment for better energy performance and efficiency, and the composting of food waste.

I'm a little sad to report that our trip to Turks & Caicos has been postponed at best, but am happy to report that they will reopen again in a few months. Wishing @beachesresorts and the rest of those effected by Irma a speedy recovery. If you want to help out, @sandalsfdn has been collecting donations of which 100% will go to helping those effected by the storm. 🌴 📷 by my 🖤: @nopeburger . . #turksandcaicos #hurricaneirma #fromwhereidrone #dronestagram #caribbean #beachesmoms http://ift.tt/2xjK3gj
