The issue of an Oil Refinery in Dominica has raised many questions by different environment groups and occasions in Dominica. Not so long ago Prime Minister Skerrit made it clear that the oil refinery won’t be built until a complete environment impact study is done. But are still raising concerns by the Waitukubuli Ecological Foundation of the effects an oil refinery can have on Dominica’s environment.

Also the People’s Democratic Party leader Para Riviere said Prime Minister Skerrit failure to consult the people on the issue of the oil refinery is wrong, especially since the Energy Minister had said the people of Dominica would be the ones to decide.

With that being said, Dominica Weekly did some research on Oil Refineries and the effects they can have on an environment. We came up with these three videos by Terry Tamminen, who is an accomplish Author and Environmental Policy Advisor - take a look at what he has to say about Oil Refineries.

After watching these three videos, do you think that having an Oil Refinery in Dominica is a good idea? Please :!: Let’s hear your opinions in the comments.

fishermans cove nightclub in Dominica

After weeks of 17 hour work-days under rain storms, the contractors were able to have everything ready for the grand opening of the “Cove” - Dominica’s newest night club/sport bar. I guess there is now an alternative to “Warehouse Disco” but with prices like EC$75.00 for VIP and EC$30.00, plus the location is on the best hang-out spot… I’m a bit skeptical that the Fishermans Cove Nightclub will make a lasting impression. What do you think? Let’s hear ‘em comments.

Talk about adrenaline rush. Where are all the action Jackson’s guys claiming to be daredevils; I want to see you all try Wingsuite mountain swoop. Flying (or swooping) down mountains at speeds of 100 miles per hour. If you observe the video closely, there are no black men. There are too many other ways a black man can die, rather than jumping off a damn mountain. :smile: I think its much safer just watching this video. :mrgreen:
