BR1-21: The Future of a Village

"The people of Essaouria now have to make......." (p. 19)

This book tells us about Essaouris’s economy and environment. It is in Morocco. Essaouri’s fisherman worried about the future of their work because it is difficult for them to survive at the fishing industry. Essaouri is very beautiful and old, so a lot of visitors go to there. It is a good chance for villagers to bring a good economy. However, there are some problems. Growing the economy too fast is not good, and increasing tourism is bad for local environment. The people of Essaoria have to choose which more important is, economy or environment. I think that they have to protect their beautiful village. If you lose their beautiful village, they must spend long time to revive. I want Morocco government to help Essauria’s economy.

This book has a lot of Essauria’s pictures. It is beautiful and simple, so you will enjoy it. If you interested in it, please try it.
