Haiti - Environment : Saut d'Eau falls, risk of drying up ! 14/03/2013 14:27:17 The causes of this drying up are multiple, among others, above the falls, on the whole hill, the peasants do not stop down trees illegally to produce charcoal, causing a drying of soils, others point the global warming or a undetected fault underground... Given the urgency, Dieuseul Simon Desras and the Senator Francisco De la Cruz, also from the Central Plateau, initiated with the support of the Minustah, a community forum in the Department of Centre on Thursday, March 14 on the problem of drying up of water sources feeding the falls. In addition to the objective of raising awareness about this issue, this Forum aims among others to generate a constructive debate on environmental issues related to drying up, in order to initiate a collective awareness, and obtain a commitment official and citizens to identify an action plan for short, medium and long term interventions. For its part, the Government of Haiti has begun consultations with the authorities and the population of Saut d'Eau in the Central Plateau to find a solution that threatens the environment and the economic development of the region.
