ways to stop global warming

The impact of global warming in Costa Rica appears to be first making itself noticeable in the cooler upland slopes of the Monteverde cloud forest region.   Several species of frogs and toads have been greatly reduced in numbers or have not been observed for several years.  

At Finca Las Brisas we take the issue of global warming seriously, and are looking for ways to stop global warming by how we interact and manage our 150 acres of pasture and forest land.   

For starters we plan on dealing with global warming in Costa Rica by taking immediate action right on our finca.  Already in the first rainy season since we purchased the property, we have planted close to 600 endemic fruit trees and hardwoods, and plan on planting many thousands more in the open pasture areas in the coming years.   

This will help reduce the impact of global warming in Costa Rica by shading and cooling the land, retaining moisture, reducing erosion, and most importantly, sequestering CO2.

If you are looking for ways to stop global warming, perhaps you might be interested in visiting or becoming a part of our enviro-friendly community.  Or if you can’t make it to Costa Rica, just get in touch with us and find out how you can help contribute to the planting of thousands of native species on our farm and provide worthwhile and well paying work for local residents in the surrounding communities.
