Activities proposed under this project include, replacing the outdoor lighting on the Bahamas Academy campus with solar lights and retrofitting light fixtures throughout the school with LED bulbs. This project will not only result in a significant ( ... )
ion of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions but will also bring financial savings for the school due to the high cost of fossil fuel-based energy generation in The Bahamas. The school?s electricity bill is approximately $9,000 per month.
Additionally, the project seeks to increase awareness of the need for energy efficiency by dedicating a page of the school?s website to the project. Our website has

The project will protect cropland from soil degradation and cold wind flows and increase yields of vegetables, fruits, fruit trees and bushes by promoting the composting method for preparing good quality organic fertilizers with livestock manure and ( ... )
cing it into household production. By using livestock manure (that pollutes the environment and affects climate change), the CBO will be able to improve soil fertility and structure, leading to increased crop yields per hectare. This will also be the first step in displacing chemical fertilizers harmful to soil. This is critical to the production of ecologically pure products.

In Cam Thanh and Cam Tuyen communes, peanut is the staple crop that generates income for the local economy. Peanuts are mainly cultivated during winter-spring crop using rainwater, with an area of 521 ha - more than 50% of the ( ... )
istrict. During the summer crop, only 20 ha is cultivated due to shortage of irrigation water. The remaining land is fallow with low vegetation cover, leading to rapid water evaporation. Whereas in the hilly terrain areas during the rainy season, soild surface is eroded, which contributes to accelerate land degradation.
