Dominica is one of the safest places to travel in the region. There are no poisonous snakes or insects in Dominica. Tap water is safe to drink, but since it is sometimes drawn straight from Dominica's many rivers, it has a tendency to turn brown after heavy rainfall. It's better to drink the bottled water available almost anywhere.

A great way to chgane the future would be to get governments and politicians to side with clean energy. The reason that clean energy hasn't taken hold here is because our government and politicians are stubborn due to the fact that oil is money to them. We need to work with them to realize that renewable energy is a gold mine socially and financially, all it needs is the attention of the people who run this country and other countries as well. Secondly, the public needs to be educated on renewable energy so that we don't have another generation of brainwashed citizens who support oil and don't believe in global warming or renewable energy. I have an ambition to chgane the world by designing green cities in the future one day. When I have the necessary credentials, I will try my hardest to make this ambition a reality. I am truly happy to see that people are already way ahead of me on this. Cities like the one above are the future, not just for China, but for the entire human race.
