Ma ka lā o ka Honua i kēia Lāpule, ʻo ia ke poʻomanaʻo ʻo "End Plastic Pollution", St. Lucia's Anse Chastanet a me Jade Mountain resorts e hōʻoia hou ana i kā lākou kūpaʻa i ke kaiapuni me ka hoʻopau ʻana i ka 90 pakeneka o nā plastics hoʻohana hoʻokahi mai kā lākou hana. .
Hana pono ʻia e hōʻoia i ka hoʻopilikia liʻiliʻi loa i kahi ʻāina lush 600-acre ma nā puʻu Soufrière o St. Lucia, ʻo Anse Chastanet a me kona kaikuahine ʻo Jade Mountain, he mau hale hoʻokipa lanakila i hoʻolaʻa ʻia no ka mākaʻikaʻi kuleana. No ka noʻonoʻo ʻana i ka hopena o nā plastics ma ka ʻāina a me ke kai moana, ua hoʻomaka nā hui hoʻokele o nā hōkele i kā lākou nānā kūloko i ka hōʻemi ʻana a me ka hoʻopau ʻana i nā plastics mai kā lākou hana ma 2015.
Mai ia manawa, ua hana nui nā hōkele i ka hōʻemi ʻana i ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka plastik a me ka ʻimi ʻana i nā mea hou aku i ka plastics no nā ipu meaʻai, nā ʻokiʻoki, nā kīʻaha a me nā mauʻu. Hoʻopili kēia i ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā huahana lāʻau, metala a me ka melamine a me nā mea i hoʻokumu ʻia i ka palaoa a me ke kō, a hoʻopau koke i ke kūʻai ʻana i kekahi mau huahana plastik a me Styrofoam.
"Ke paipai nei mākou i ka ʻāpana hoʻokipa e nānā pono i kā lākou hoʻohana ʻana i nā plastics a komo i ke kūkākūkā me kā lākou mau hui," wahi a Nick Troubetzkoy, ka luna hoʻomalu o Anse Chastanet a me Jade Mountain. "ʻO ka pinepine o nā hoʻonā noʻonoʻo a me ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa e waiho ʻia i loko o kāu hui a hoʻokomo pololei i kāu limahana i ka loaʻa ʻana o nā hoʻonā e kōkua pū i ka hōʻoia ʻana i ke kūʻai ʻana i ka pōʻai hoʻohiki e pono ai e hoʻololi."
Ma nā pā hale hoʻokipa, ua hoʻololi ʻia nā mauʻu ʻuʻuku me nā mauʻu i hana ʻia mai ka ʻuala kulina a i kēia manawa, hāʻawi ʻia nā mea inu me nā mauʻu wale nō ke noi ʻia - koe wale kekahi mau mea inu kūikawā. "Maikaʻi ka pane ʻana o ka poʻe malihini i kēia, no ka mea, ʻoluʻolu lākou e 'kūʻai i loko' a apo i ka hana," wahi a Troubetzkoy.
ʻAʻole loaʻa hou nā kīʻaha palaki ma nā keʻena wai hoʻomaʻemaʻe o nā hōkele - akā, lawe mai nā limahana i kā lākou mau kīʻaha a i ʻole nā ʻōmole. ʻO kēia hoʻololi liʻiliʻi ma kāna mau moʻolelo ponoʻī no ka hoʻopau ʻana i nā pahu plastik hoʻohana hoʻokahi ma mua o 500 i kēlā me kēia lā. I loko o ka hale ʻaina limahana, ua pani nā mea ʻoki metala i nā ʻoki ʻokiʻoki, a lawe mai nā limahana i kā lākou mau ipu hoʻohana ponoʻī inā pono lākou e lawe i ka meaʻai i kā lākou mau pākaukau a me nā keʻena.
ʻO ka mālama ʻana i ka ʻāina he 600 mau ʻeka ka mea i lilo i wahi i pau i ka nui o nā plastics, wehewehe ʻo Troubetzkoy. No ka hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻōpala mea kanu, ua hoʻololi ʻia nā ʻeke plastik hoʻohana hoʻokahi me nā ʻeke hoʻohana hou ʻana i ka hana kaumaha i hiki ke hoʻopuehu ʻia i ka hopena o ko lākou ola.
"ʻO ka'ōlelo maoli maʻaneʻi, he manawa kūpono nā mea a pau e nānā i ka hanaʻana i nā mea likeʻole," wahi a Troubetzkoy. "ʻO kā mākou ʻike no ka liʻiliʻi a i ʻole ke kumu kūʻai ua hiki iā mākou ke ʻimi i nā koho kūpono i ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā plastics. Ua ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o nā pōmaikaʻi spin-off i ka hui pū ʻana a me ka hoʻonui ʻana i nā haʻawina i aʻo ʻia ma ʻaneʻi i nā kaiāulu e hoʻopuni ana iā mākou, ʻoiai e hoʻomaka ana kā mākou hui e hoʻomaʻamaʻa ma ka home i nā mea a lākou i hoʻomaka ai e hana ma ka hana.
Ma ka hoʻolauleʻa hou ʻana o ka Lā Honua 2018, ke paipai nei ʻo Anse Chastanet a me Jade Mountain i kā lākou poʻe malihini e komo i kahi laina o nā hana e pili ana i ke kaiapuni. Hiki i nā malihini ke kanu i nā kumulā'au cacao ma nā hale ho'okipa' organic Emerald Farm, 'o ia ke kumu o ka nui o nā mea'ai hou o nā hale'ai a me ka ho'oikaika 'ana i kā lākou mahi'ai-a-papa'aina i ka 'aina.
Ma ka Lā Honua, hiki i ka poʻe malihini ke hauʻoli i kahi "Low Carbon Dining Experience", e hoʻohana ana i nā ʻano hana kuke hana kalapona liʻiliʻi a i ʻole, e like me ka marinating, curing and seawater poaching. E hoʻohana nā mea kuke i nā umu lāʻau a me nā pahu lanahu no ka hoʻohaʻahaʻa ʻana i nā kapuaʻi kalapona o nā hōkele. Aia nā koho papa i ka Emerald Farm Watermelon a me Julie Mango Salad, Charcoal-grilled Banana Leaf Mahi Mahi a me Zucchini Carpaccio.
Hiki i nā poʻe hauʻoli ke komo i ka luʻu hoʻomaʻemaʻe ma lalo o ka wai me nā alakaʻi mai ka hana luʻu ma luna o nā hōkele, ʻo Scuba St. Lucia, i lanakila i ka makahiki i hala. ʻO ka makana PADI Green Star no kona kūpaʻa i ka mālama.

Hiki i ka poʻe ʻoliʻoli ke hoʻolauleʻa i ka Lā Honua ma Anse Chastanet me kahi luʻu hoʻomaʻemaʻe ma lalo o ka wai.

Hiki i nā malihini ke komo i kahi luʻu no ka hahai holoholona iʻa lionfish invasive ʻano, ʻaʻohe mea ʻaihue maoli a ʻike ʻia e hoʻopilikia nui i nā kaiaola maoli a me nā ʻoihana lawaiʻa kūloko. Ua pane aku ʻo Scuba St. Lucia i ke kāhea ʻana o nā conservationists kūloko e kaua i nā ʻano mea ma ka hoʻokomo ʻana i ka PADI "Invasive Lionfish Tracker Specialty Course", kahi e aʻo ai i nā poʻe e pili ana i ka hoʻomalu ʻana i ka heluna intrusive a pehea e hopu ai a euthanize i kēia mau iʻa. Hoʻokomo pū ʻo Anse Chastanet a me Jade Mountain i ka iʻa liona i kā lākou ʻai ʻana, e lawelawe ana iā ia ma nā ʻano ʻano like ʻole - i hoʻomoʻa ʻia, i hoʻomoʻa ʻia, e like me ka sashimi, a me ka citrus ceviche i kāwili ʻia i kahi tortilla crispy.
Ma waena o kā lākou mau hana hoʻomau, ke hana nei nā hōkele me ka ʻikepili hoʻokele wai "wai ke ola", e komo pū ana me nā huahana hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻole, kahi hale hoʻomaʻemaʻe wai ma ka pūnaewele, a me kahi lako wai kūʻokoʻa e pale aku i ke kaumaha o ke kaiāulu a puni o Soufrière.
Loaʻa mau iā Anse Chastanet lāua ʻo Jade Mountain ka mahalo ʻia no kā lākou mau hana hoʻomau, ʻo ka loaʻa ʻana o kēia manawa. ʻO ka palapala hōʻoia gula Travellife. I ka makahiki 2016, ua lilo ʻo Jade Mountain i hōkele mua loa ma ka Caribbean i loaʻa ka palapala alakaʻi hanohano i ka Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Gold.
No Anse Chastanet
Hoʻokumu ʻia ʻo Anse Chastanet ma waena o kahi ʻāina lush 600-acre me ʻelua kahakai one palupalu a me nā hiʻohiʻona nani o nā mauna māhoe Pitons o St. Lucia, kahi UNESCO World Heritage Site. Ma waena o ka u'i uluwehiwehi o St. Lucia, ho'omaka nā hana mai ka ka'a ka'a ka'a, ka holoholo a me ka nānā manu a hiki i ka snorkeling ma ka 'au'au ma kahi mamao o ke kahakai. He 49 lumi ho'okahi i ho'olālā 'ia i loko o ka hale ho'okipa ho'ona'auao, a he 37 o ia mau lumi i ho'opuehu ma kahi o ka pu'u ulu, a he 12 e waiho 'ia ana ma loko o ka māla ho'omehana ma kahakai. Hāʻawi ʻia nā menus hou - hoʻokahi o ia mea he meaʻai āpau - hāʻawi ʻia ma nā wahi like ʻole ʻehā a loaʻa nā huahana hou i lawelawe ʻia mai ka mahiʻai lāʻau o ka resort. Hiki i nā malihini ke ʻai i nā papa hana kokoleka paʻi ma ka hale hoʻokipa kokoleka a ua hāʻawi ʻia nā ʻano haʻuki wai like ʻole.
