Description

Happy Easter monday, chicos! I am especially proud of today's episode. I had the pleasure to talk to Elena Echandi, a biologist who has dedicated to study the behavior and thus save the howler monkeys in the coastal regions of Costa Rica. "Save the monkeys?" you might ask. Yes! There is a huge problem that causes hundreds of deaths and injuries each year; the main reason are electric shocks. Elena took the time to share with us: 🌎 insights of her work as a biologist for the organization "SalveMonos", 🌎 the tragic effects that growing tourism and the lack of seriousness of Costa Rica's laws has on wildlife and most important 🌎 what you can do to become active and fight with Elena and her colleagues to prevent more deaths. Links: Facebook page SalveMonos https://www.facebook.com/salvemonos.tamarindo & https://www.facebook.com/SalveMonosHermosa/ , for recovery stories visit https://www.facebook.com/iarcostarica/ & https://www.facebook.com/1659212170979325/. What was the most important insight  that you  could take away today? And what can you do today to create a more  sustainable and fulfilling life? On Instagram @positive_globalimpact you  will get to know more sustainability hacks and get a better impression  of our life in Costa Rica. Also I'd love  for  you to share your  insights and thoughts with us either on Instagram  https://www.instagram.com/positive_globalimpact/ or write us an email to team.positiveglobalimpact@gmail.com.
