A Line in the Sand - The Fight to Protect Andros

A Line in the Sand | Definition: " a point beyond which one will not go"

The island of Andros is a pristine ecosystem, with the largest freshwater source in the Bahamas, massive mangrove shorelines, one of the world's largest barrier reefs, and legendary bonefish habitat. Now, a group of anglers and activists are raising their voices to stop a 5,000-acre limestone mine threatening the ecosystem and local livelihoods. By following two anglers' return to their former home (and mission to find trophy bonefish), A Line in the Sand highlights the incredible beauty of Andros and why it is worth protecting.

I have walked many of these places. Andros is a very special place and greed should not destroy it. Save the beauty, the water tables, and the mangroves which feed the ecosystem of this island.
