The day was Earth Day, a day for celebrating our planet. Therefore it was absolutely
necessary for Erin Peot and I , Joanna Colon to join in the protest against the Gold Minery here in Costa Rica. The protest in San Jose was filled with extreme energy and the air reverberated with enthusiasm. It was an amazing experience for us both. I personally was honored and rewarded in coming together with so many others, who truly believe in this very important cause. As we all continue to put forth our efforts, let us stay positive and believe that we will be heard. On this note I say aloud “All our hopes of success will impact this Governments final decision, and keep the Gold Minery out of Costa Rica.” Let’s do it! Let’s do all we can to prevent the Gold Minery from moving forward, and from making a great waste in this land of paradise. Oh yes! We can all live without gold in our lives but for the love of God, we cannot live without clean waters, nor can we live without the trees in the forest . Every wrong action has it’s consequence. Destruction to the land will cause massive global climate changes. The lives in the forest as well as our lives are affected. So therefore this fight is necessary and will continue to the end. Our Paradise and great planet is worth it. So stand with us and send your energy as we join together with CECOS to preserve our Paradise!
