Africa-Press – Mauritius. <\/strong><\/span>Joy Nursiah \u2014 a Canadian who was born in Mauritius \u2014 remembers the devastation she felt when she saw the usually stunning turquoise waters of her homeland stained black and brown.<\/p>\n

In late July, a Japanese-owned ship ran aground off Mauritius and began leaking oil. Soon, the oil spill had become so large it was visible from space.<\/p>\n

Volunteers work to clean up an oil spill after a Japanese ship spilled an estimated 1,000 tonnes of its 4,000 tonnes of oil into the sea, fouling the coastline of Mauritius, including a protected wetlands area.<\/p>\n

(Submitted by Joy Nursiah)<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel sad for my country,\u201d Nursiah the Mississauga resident told CBC News.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know for sure this is going to be impacting the economy and the environment and we highly depend on the Mauritian environment for tourism, which is our biggest export.<\/p>\n

\u201d Nursiah no longer lives in Mauritius, but she knew she had to do something to help.<\/p>\n

So she decided to collaborate with other Mauritians in the GTA to raise funds to help with the huge clean-up effort and help restore the biodiversity hotspot where more than 1,000 tonnes of fuel have leaked.<\/p>\n

Nursiah launched a Facbook group called WAKASHIO-Oil Spill-Canada, which she says it is working with non-profits including EcoSud, Sovlanatir and Lagon Blue.<\/p>\n

The hope is to raise enough funds to purchase bio microorganisms that would help with breaking down oil in areas where manual clean-up is impossible. \u201cWe\u2019re hoping to get funding as well for a coral reef plantation and conservation,\u201d Nursiah said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re currently trying to [communicate] with NGOs [in Mauritius] to find out what supplies they need the most and we\u2019re hosting fundraisers for PPEs, for waterproof full body suits and masks,\u201d Nursiah said, adding volunteers doing clean-up are being exposed to toxic crude-oil.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe focus is moving more towards clean-up around the animals and the wild life \u2014 more like replanting [and] conservation,\u201d Nursiah explained. Mauritian waters are extraordinarily rich in biodiversity, thanks to an abundance of coral reefs, seagrasses and mangroves.<\/p>\n

According to the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity, the island\u2019s marine environment is home to 1,700 species including around 800 types of fish, 17 kinds of marine mammals and two species of turtles.<\/p>\n

Mauritians uniting across Canada to help Like Nursiah, Pamela Pakium, president of the Ottawa chapter of the Canada Mauritius Cultural Association, has also been mobilizing fundraisers.<\/p>\n

Pakium said she is reaching out to CMCAs in each province to consolidate their efforts. Initially, they were hoping to purchase a skimmer, but they have since been advised it\u2019s no longer needed.<\/p>\n

Instead they\u2019re looking at a longer-term project focused on preserving marine life. Pakium said various Mauritius-based NGOs will be asked to submit a technical sheet detailing the project plan.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are going to choose three different universities here in Canada to help us vet which projects we should associate with,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe three different universities have their own marine biology programs, so the professors would be able to help us assess the technicality of the project and the viability of each and every project.<\/p>\n

Then, she said, the Mauritian community in Canada will be able to vote on the three projects. \u201cAnd whichever wins that competition we are going to put the funding towards that,\u201d Pakium said.<\/p>\n

\u2018Tourism is one of the pillars of our economy\u2019 Many Mauritians, including fishermen, need the ocean for daily living, Pakium says. Beyond that, she points to the importance of tourism to the Mauritian economy.<\/p>\n

\u201cTourism is one of the pillars of our economy, so obviously if we are not able to get the marine life back, tourism obviously is going to decrease,\u201d she told CBC News.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe fishermen won\u2019t be able to have a living and the population in itself will be very sad and very depressed.<\/p>\n

For a Mauritian, going to the beach every weekend is an activity or a hobby, so they look forward to that. \u201d Fundraising in the time of Covid-19 Nursiah says she\u2019s aware it\u2019s a strange time to be trying to raise money given the global pandemic underway.<\/p>\n

But given the extraordinary circumstances, she says she had no choice but to try to help. She\u2019s also hoping others will pitch in once more people become aware of the magnitude of the oil spill.<\/p>\n

\u201cPersonally, I\u2019m very, very dedicated to this movement, but as I\u2019m fundraising and spreading awareness, I have to take into consideration that not everyone is going to be as involved as I am, especially because it\u2019s a problem directly, personally to me,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo it has been difficult, especially since not everyone is aware of what\u2019s happening and with everything happening around in the world.<\/p>\n

\u201d<\/p>\n

Environmental group Greenpeace Africa warned that the consequences of the oil spill may be lasting, with some experts saying the impact is likely to remain for years.<\/p>\n
