LIME announces "go Green" initiatives

Tuesday 28th April, 2009 Posted: 15:27 CIT (20:27 GMT)

The telecommunications company LIME says it is stepping up its “Go Green” efforts with the announcement in April 2009 of two major initiatives to promote environmental preservation in every Caribbean country where it operates.

The first initiative is a massive tree planting programme, which started on World Earth Day, April 22, through April 24. LIME’s employees joined forces with primary schools, community groups, service clubs and other organizations across the region to plant as many as 3000 seedlings to replace trees that have been harvested or destroyed over the years.
