Held on Saturday, May 21st 2016 across Belize including Placencia Village, the Hands Across the Sand movement attracted hundreds of Belizeans who joined hands to protect and preserve what Mother Nature has blessed Belize with.
May 21st, 2016 marked the 6th anniversary of the Hands Across the Sand movement and according tohttp://www.handsacrossthesand.com/ more than 83 events were held around the globe to say no to filthy fuels and yes to clean energy.
In Placencia Village, the event was held between Cozy Corner and Typsy Tuna and was sponsored by Oceana Belize.
Hands Across the Sand was founded in 2010 and has grown into an international movement after the BP oil disaster in April of that year. People came together to join hands, forming symbolic barriers against spilled oil and to stand against the impacts of other forms of extreme energy.
