Haneul friend: Yoon Sarah Spring from Incheon to Dominica Republic

 

 The Dominican Republic has a lot of limestone, so karst topography has developed. There are many caves, dolines, and underground rivers.

 The Dominican Republic is an island country and has a lot of karst terrain, so it seems like the groundwater would contain a lot of limestone, making it difficult to use as drinking water. So how are water resources supplied?

 

 I am curious about the scenery of Lake Enriquillo. Along with the beautiful scenery around the lake, I heard that crocodiles and iguanas live there, so I would like to see such scenery.

These days, spring is approaching in South Korea, and the weather is warm and sunny. Here on Yeongjong Island, forsythias are in full bloom and cherry blossoms are blossoming as well. The daytime temperature is usually around 15°C, making it perfect for a walk. Until recently, it was cloudy and rainy, but now there are many clear days.However, not long ago, we experienced a spell of cold weather and even snowfall, showing signs of abnormal climate conditions. Recently, temperatures have risen again, and we’ve been having several days of warm weather. These unusual climate patterns seem to be one of the manifestations of climate change caused by global warming.The Dominican Republic aims to increase its share of renewable energy use to 25% by 2025. It is also working to preserve and restore forests to maintain biodiversity and participating in the Peace Forest Initiative to promote peace along border areas. These efforts show the Dominican Republic’s active commitment to environmental protection and sustainable development.I’m curious to know which marine areas have been designated as marine protected areas to preserve coastal and marine ecosystems. Also, what real impacts have residents experienced in their daily lives through the promotion of sustainable fishing practices in these areas?However, until recently, there was an abnormal climate phenomenon, such as cold weather and snow.Also, the temperature has been rising again recently, and warm weather has continued for several days.

Hello I'm Sarah Spring Yoon in Korea. I'd like to learn about Dominican Republic, because the baseball is the most famous sport there and I love it. I want to connect with you and make a lot of memories.
