Eco-Warrior Challenge 2025: Five Seas by Red Bay Primary School 5C

Описание: Our island design is centered around sustainability, innovation, Cayman pride and ecotourism. It reflects a balanced relationship between people, policies, business, and the environment. Some of the key sustainable features include renewable energy systems such as solar panels and wind turbines which provide clean power across the islands. Eco-friendly houses are built from locally sourced and recycled materials with all buildings designed to maximize natural light and airflow, thus reducing the use of electricity. The plants on some roofs help to keep the structure cool while providing food, thus reducing the use of air conditioners. Also, some structures are built on stilts to protect the structure on the shoreline and to keep the houses cool.

Coastal mangroves help protect the island from storms. The rainwater harvesting systems and distillation plants help with providing access to fresh water while minimizing waste. The composting and recycling stations convert waste into renewable resources. This waste management system supports a circular economy. Pollution and carbon emissions are reduced through green transportation such as our electric vehicles and bikes and bicycle paths.

Harmony between people and nature is evident on our island with lush mangrove forest, coral reef restoration and community gardens. Biodiversity is preserved while residents are educated about environmental stewardship. Businesses adhere to strict sustainability guidelines, are committed to using renewable resources and supporting local farmers and artisans. The local policies highlight conservation, fair trade, responsible tourism emphasizing that economic growth does not compromise the ecosystem.

The strong sense of Cayman identity and community spirit truly makes our island unique. The inclusion of cultural landmarks such as the mystic trail helps celebrate the history and traditions of the Cayman Islands, nature park with local plants and animals support ecotourism, while education centers teach future generation about sustainability and resilience. Our island design displays a captivating story of a balance of hope and responsibility, representing teamwork, creativity and care for people and the planet. We display that sustainability is both possible and beautiful, presenting how we can protect and cherish the Cayman Islands’ natural resources for future generations.
