Some
exampls of what we were able to accomplish in 2008
- Implement
our own Recycling program of all the organic
and non organic waste!
- Transform
a Jungle-beach trail into an Ecological
trail, an unforgettable learning experience
for us.
- Change
all the detergents and disinfectants in
100% biodegradable products.
- Start
an Ecological Program with the School of
Ojochal to share our learning experience
with the more than 80 children of the school,
to learn more about the flora and fauna
of our natural environment. Themes so far:
Friends of the Mangroves, Friends of the
Tortugas. See the results of this project
at the Reception.
- Start
a project with the Boruca community in which
we enforce our help, not only with offering
space for direct sales of their artesenias,
as we always have done during the years,
but to promote their culture and products
actively to our guests with the intention
to increase the income of the Boruca community.
- Describe
the flora of the Gaia garden in a picture
book our guests can take out for a stroll
through the tropical gardens.
Among
many other things!
We
invite you to:
- Partipate
in our Recycle Program, managed by Augustin
and ProVerde. At the entrance of the hotel
you find a recycle centre where you can
leave your recyclable waste, like plastic,
paper and aluminum. In your room you will
find two waste disposals, one for recyclable
waste, the other for disposable waste.
If
you are interested in visiting our recycle center
and talk with the person in charge, please ask the
reception.
- Participate
in our commitment to energy and resource conservation.
Energy conservation helps reduce the effects
of global warming, acid rain, smog and protects
our natural resources. Here is how you can help:
1. Our
standard is to change your bed linen every second
day and at check out. If you would like your sheets
changed sooner, we will gladly accommodate you.
Just ask the Receptionhys.
2. Please
switch of the lights, ventilator and air conditioning
when you leave your casita.
3. External
clients. Evaluates the interaction of the company
with its clients in terms of how much it allows
and invites the client to be an active contributor
to the company's policies of sustainability.
4. Every
day, tons of detergent and millions of gallons of
water are used to wash towels that have been used
once. Therefore: A towel on the rack means ‘I’ll
use it again’. A towel on the floor means ‘’please
exchange’.
- Walk
our Ecological Trail with the auto guide
(available at the reception) and/or the
Garden Trail and enjoy and appreciate the
natural surroundings as much as we do.
- Give
a donation for the Boruca Foundation or
better visit them! For more information
ask the Reception.
Give
us your opinion and ideas!
