It helps to know that a parade of phonies has, by feigning green principles, given genuine caring folks a little tougher row to hoe*. Remember Victor Gonzales? He claimed his beach privatization activities were to preserve the environment. His malarky was even swallowed by certain adjudicating authorities, or sold out by same.
The advertising for the recent, offensive incursions by cruiseliners extolls the beauty and solitude of Culebrita, even as they lay waste to its coral, and launch loud, destructive jetskis. Costa Bonita and more recent quick buck developments, knowing that their plans are unsustainable, applied for permits during holiday periods, when understaffed and corrupt officials had neither the manpower or willpower to challenge the lies therein.
Be comforted, Rick and Karen, that the Debbies and Dougs and Richards will hold you to your word; they'll do the same to the next folks who propose "enhancements" to the Culebra experience, and that will protect your investment.
