Why did I choose Rainforest Management for my topic?
Many people do not know that we loose approximately 150-200 species of plants, birds, insects, and mammals every day. I had no idea about any of this until I joined a non-profit organization named, "Planet Rehab." It was created by Gary C, Mitchel and he welcomed me into the family when I was just a freshman. I've helped and supported the organization till this day. He informed me of many environmental issues we are having, but no action has been taken. I was shocked that I didn't have a clue about any of these issues. I found it hard to believe that not many people knew about this either. The reasons I chose this as my topic so I could share the issues of our ecosystems, this is something I'm passionate about, and I find it very interesting.
What do I mean by "Rainforest Management?"
Planet Rehab has a mission to go into the rainforest of Costa Rica and to purchase several acres of rainforest. We plan to protect it from deforestation and to also make an area for tourist to be able to see wildlife and to educate them as well. We felt being able to allow the tourist to connect with animals and to educate them about their homes, would give them a better understanding of these issues. We also want to breed species that are in possible danger of extinction as well. After we have gotten everything settled and things running we plan on purchasing more, allowing us to protect more of the rainforest in Costa Rica.
