The video show us an interview to a man that owns a company that brings support and tips to people who want to start their own business, for instance: he explains how to take an idea and turn it in to a business, how to manage resources efficiently, and so on.

I want to share this information because I consider very important encourage people to create their own projects and business. Usually in our country, people are not educated to become in an entrepreneur, instead of that, we are raised to be good employees, which is not bad, but sometimes we need support and knowledge to make our dreams come true.

Costa Rica is famous around the world for its natural resources, biodiversity and ecological politics, we promote our country as one tropical ecological paradise; unfortunately not all what we say is true.

This video show us the serious problem that we have with the lack of environmental education in groups including fishers, people that need natural resources to make a living and communities in general. This problem is the principal reason for situations like shark finning, indiscriminate fishing and the contamination of rivers and oceans.

I think it is important to support that kind of organizations and request the government to take control of the situation, and really punish behaviors that don’t respect our environmental laws.

This video presents the testimony of the actress Eva Mendes about how she changed her mind concerning to the animals rights and how she became more aware about animal abuse.

In Costa Rica we have some regulations about the responsible pet ownership, cruelty, and killing of endangered species, however, I consider that it is also important to inform people, in order to consciousness about how to be a responsible owner.

On the other hand, in our country there are several organizations that fight against animal abuse, also they look to provide medical care, food and home to the homeless animals.

 

So, if you are a PET LOVER, this is a call to action.
