With only a handful of trees left in our country, Mstr. Akram Chehayyeb has recently signed a petition to cut them down. (there are 51,000 trees in the endangered area, to be precise) in the Janna nature reserve.
The Janna nature reserve will be cut down to build a water dam, which will lead to devastating consequences on the upper Nahr ibrahim Valley, Jeita springs, Afqa and Roueiss.
BGR (Germany), SAFEGE (France) studies proved why the Janna Dam is a non-sense.
The German Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources strongly recommended not to go ahead with the construction of the planned Janneh dam.
Needless to say that ecology has direct financial consequences on the economy, and the effects that this project will have on the long run on these 4 major touristic areas will be irreparable.
Join our cause and put the pressure on the Lebanese government to abort this project which will destroy Nahr Ibrahim region, the historical valley of Adonis, the Biosphere of Jabal Moussa and probably the Jeita grotto!
Let's all join our voices and let this massacre end before it's too late!!

I am truly overwhelmed by the momentum behind this because it was never my intention to lead something that resonated with so many people. This movement belongs entirely to the individuals who refused to look away from the valley. Thank you for showing me that our collective concern is far stronger than I ever imagined.

Signing the petition to help save out beautiful environment in Lebanon and all over the world. This is one of the special places I used to visit when I was small and it pains my heart to see such actions being covered by politicians and beneficiaries.
Decision innimaginable ! "Noyez la Vallee D'Adonis " quel massacre !,,,,! Peut etre aussi une nouvelle values commerciale.... On ne sait jamais
By building Janna Dam we are loosing more green spaces. Loosing more of our beuatiful nature with its rich diversity of animals, insects, trees and plants. This should be stoped.
This dam will not be useful more than Chabrouh dam. All this who are behind this project and defending it know the truth. It's all about corruption and bribes.
Stop this catastrophic "alternative"!!! It will get us nothing but harm and destruction for what remains of Lebanon's ecosystem!! There are much better alternatives that can be employed! All this Dam Janneh thing is but another twisted way for politicians to gain money and more money on the expense of tax-payers and our nature!! Stop this nonsense!
OMG How can it be ?
Kindly stop the Janna Dam,show Love n respect to mother Nature for once
