Fire Island is unstoppably taken care of due to the ongoing conservation program that is meant to preserve the diverse plants and animals. They want to secure these creatures from being extinct and also desire to let the sea waters remain immaculate. The inhabitants over here voluntarily participated in the “Beach renourishment project” an initiative in which contributed the National Park Service, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Towns of Brookhaven and Islip. The initiatives held in the winter and spring of 2009 involved scouring sand from an offshore area and pumping it onto the beach and layering the sand in such a way that it resembles a beach.

Because of this ongoing project, many restrictions like walking out of the public access is forbidden to the tourists, the motto behind this is to conserve the eco system. So, if you visit there, it’s my humble request not to perform any such activities that will lead to demolishment of this marvelous natural creation.

This will subsequently result to your own benefit, consequently by being a serene and tranquil location, away from the hustle and bustle of the fast-pacer life. So, anyone seeking a calm destination and desiring to explore some of the amazing natural wonders, this place is a must visit for those. Voyaging this location, will blatantly make you contribute in a noble cause of maintaining eco-friendly place. It offers chance of exploring Fire Island by the adventurous way of water taxis which takes you to each and every section of this location. These are obviously not that cheap, but its fare depends upon how far you choose to go.

While entering the Fire Island, you will find the wooden walkways that are actually spread out for nurturing the environment. These thin wooden planks protect the sand dunes. This island shelters lots of birds’ nests, but they are not perceptible because the tall grasses hides them from getting a conspicuous view. And if you want to peek-a-boo and cull more insights, move to the Robert Moses State Park, here you will get to discover the ecological balance of the Fire Island. Over here, you can access through cars via the Robert Moses Causeway. There is another tiny settlement nearby the Fire Island which is popularly known as Cherry Grove, isn’t the name amazing? Atleast that is what I found. This place is quite famous for its magnificent art galleries.

Another part of this island is a National Park which regularly held some programs that highlight the environmental issues. So, visiting this national park will provide you a blend of information and environment i.e. infotainment. Also, there is the Otis Pike Fire Island High Dune wilderness which is the only conserved wilderness in the whole of New York. One can enjoy the wilderness of nature while staying in camps, but before camping you have to take permission at the Watch Hill Visitor Center. But the best time to camp over here is between late fall and early spring. So experience the uniqueness and purity of this special place.

It has to offer loads and loads of unexplored natural beauties, with the undulating mountains, calm blue shores and the wide ranging species of flowers. Other than that, there are some of the most amazing and antique places which comprises of innate beauty.

There is an extensive 60 acre garden which flaunts 500 distinct species of plants, of which 80 are palms. Among them, the one which are the striking part are spice garden and the Talipot palms said to flower every 60 years after which they die. This region is gifted with an amazing collection of flora and fauna. The deers and tortoise are sure to lure the visitors. The historical locations like the old French mansion, Château Mon Plaisir, and an old sugar mill possesses some of the most antique collection that reflects the Mauritius’ rich historical past. Surely, these are some of the descriptions from Mauritius that will tempt you to explore this place.

But to the question that is Mauritius really an environment-friendly holiday destination? The answer is no. There are many other countries in the world that are declared to be polluted on the debatable issue of bio-green and Mauritius is a part of it. The Ferney road development project is the first one to be swept by this new wave and has been sent back to the board. From raw sewage and pesticides in waterways, to loud music from nightclubs, all these issues have been discussed many-a-times but very little is actually done to turn these promises of eco-friendly environment into reality. The Ministry of environment boasts itself to be taking up eco-friendly measures to attain the highest level of environmental quality as a means to enhance the quality of life of Mauritians and preserve the natural environment. But these talks apparently seem to be building castles in the air because very little efforts have been done to make this happen.

The government now needs to wake up from a long sleep and wobble itself to shoulder its responsibility. Sugar cane is the one that supports for the living of the inhabitants and on the contrary, acts as fuel to the fire by contributing as one of the most inconvenient factors for escalating the debatable issue of environmental pollution. The important aspects of life i.e. time and money can be saved by putting fire to the crop but its consequences brings along a multitude of injustice to people living around or near the fields on fire. As a result, those ashes that are produced from the burning leaves are windswept miles away from the fields, only to end up in places where we go to get some calm and tranquility.
