Rainforest Hike Observación de Aves en Costa Rica
A partir de enero de 2006, más de 350 especies de aves han sido identificadas en el Hacienda Barú National Wildlife Refuge. Esto se debe principalmente a la gran diversidad de hábitats que se encuentran en las 330 hectáreas (815 acres) de reserva. Estos incluyen: bosque primario, bosque secundario, bosque de pantano, bosque de manglar, orillas del río, los humedales, la costa, las plantaciones de cacao de edad y pastizales abiertos. El bosque primario se encuentra en el altiplano y el resto se encuentran en las partes bajas de la hacienda.

Beyond sustainable
- by Jack Ewing
The Merriam-Webster online dictionary defines the word “sustainable” as: “of, relating to, or being a method of harvesting or using a resource so that the resource is not depleted or seriously damaged.”
The word has been in use for a long time, at least since 1727 according to Merriam-Webster. In recent years, with increased interest in our environment and concern over the rate of depletion of our natural resources, the word has come into popular usage. Information about how to live sustainably is readily available, as are products for sustainable ways of doing things. Energy efficiency is of utmost importance followed by water efficiency, social responsibility, general environmental friendliness and others.
