Some email I wrote with suggestions for changes to the people at Green Culebra

Simple Things That You Can Do To Help The Environment.

1.Become part of greenculera.org
How can I become a part of greenculebra.org? Provide link please.

2.Leave the car at home if possible. Ride a bike or walk to your destinations. Reducing your dependence on fossil fuels also reduces air pollutants that are increasing the problem of global warming.

3.Reuse or recycle your paper products. When you have papers which are blank on the back, reuse them for notes, coloring sheets, bird cage lining, shopping lists, etc.

4.Be a conscientious shopper. Buy products with as little wrapping as possible or with recyclable wrapping. Buy products made from recycled materials.
Reuse plastic bags or get an "eco bag". Many companies sell eco bags (like Walmart, find at your local Amigo supermarket) and some even give them away (like Heineken). - Suggestion

5.Turn off the lights when you aren't in a room. Buy compact flourescents to replace those energy hungry filament bulbs common in most homes. Reduce your electrical needs to reduce your fossil fuel dependence.
Buy Energy Star labeled products and other energy-efficient products. - This might go with number four.

6.Don't waste water. Clean drinkable water is becoming more scarce. Sweep your driveway instead of hosing it off. Put a brick in your toilet tank to reduce the amount of water needed per flush.
Also, if you can, install a rainwater collection system. In St. Thomas, this is a requirement. It would be nice to see the Puerto Rican government adopting this rule, at least Culebra and Vieques at a municipality level. - Suggestion

7.Don't use chemical Pesticides don't just kill bad insects, it also kills beneficial insects and wildlife, and creates health problems for humans.
Don't use chemical pesticides as these kill beneficial insects and wildlife, not just the bad ones as well as creating adverse health effects for humans. -Suggestion

8.Use environmentally Friendly cleaning products around the house. See "Eliminating Poisons Around the House".
^^ I did this one!

Please contact me at this email. You can find me at Junte Ambiental as David Soto. I hope to further cooperate with you. I am working with my local community on bringing the necessary infrastructure so that it is safe to bike.
