Conservation

CONSERVATION PROJECTS

The Jamaica Environment Trust’s (JET) conservation initiatives have included education for fishers, community partnerships to monitor sea turtle nesting, management of the Pedro Bank fish sanctuary and a marine mammal programme.

Why it Matters

Environmental conservation is the practice of us humans saving the environment from the loss of species, and the destruction of the ecosystem, primarily due to pollution and human activities. It is the best way to preserve biodiversity, protect biological diversity, and prevent wasteful practice.
