Just like they have a show that is attacking whaling ships, maybe they could create a show that attacks the destruction of the Costa Rican coast. Have you considered contacting the Discovery Channel?

At that time I had no idea what they were doing to the environment. Had I known, I would have never accepted the contract. This is one of the most obscene displayments of corporate greed that I have ever heard of. It is disguisting in today's age of environmental awareness, that we are allowing one of the few remaining habitats for sea turtle nesting to be destroyed, because multi-millionaires need another marina to park their yachts. I understand that Costa Rica needs economic help, but this is not the way to do it. If there is anything that I can do to help to stop this project let me know.
