Everyone and anyone who cares about Culebra is an environmentalist in some way, shape or form. There are many who wish to stop the ongoing development that changes the spirit and culture of the island. The most known conservation organization is http://coralations.org/. When you arrive, get to know the locals, and you'll quickly figure out where their hearts are and where you can help.
The residents are about 70% Culebrense and 30% ex-pat Americans. These are just my estimates - I could be wrong. You can read about Culebra's history at http://www.theculebracalendaronline.com/ - over on the left, scroll down and click on Island History under Culebra in the Press.
Petty theft is beginning to be a bigger issue than is used to be. Exercise the same caution you would in the States, and you'll be fine.
Happy Diving!
