Recycled Christmas tree contest winners rewarded | 22 December 2020
To celebrate the Christmas season and to encourage people to lead a more sustainable life, the Ministry of Agriculture, Environment and Climate Change launched a ‘Recyclable Christmas tree’ competition back in November.
After a gruelling month of fierce competition by schools and homes, the department rewarded the best of the best yesterday in a special ceremony.
The prize-giving ceremony took place at the offices of the headquarters of the ministry located at the Botanical Garden. It was attended by Minister Flavien Joubert, principal secretary for environment Alain Decomarmond, principal secretary for climate change Wills Agricole, director general for public education and community outreach division Jeanette Larue, invited guests and the winners.
