Where on the earth can one find a Garden of Eden? In the Caribbean! Seven island nations in Caribbean Common Market, CARICOM, make this case. Barbados, Dominica, Guyana, Jamaica, St. Vincent and the Grenadine Islands, Haiti, and Trinidad and Tobago are all members. They present their "Eden" which includes the ocean and beaches, volcanoes and rainforests, as well as plant and animal life. They also document their oil production. Soon visitors will notice that the "Garden of Eden" is threatened: hurricanes and lava flow destroy houses, crops and vegetation.Symbols of this danger hover over the heads of visitors on a mobile. A trip over a simulated ocean begins: from one small island to the next. On this trip, the nations along with their favorite themes are presented.
