The Destruction Of Poza De Las Mujeres In Puerto Rico Continues
I am still shocked. But at this point I guess I shouldn’t be. About 4 years ago I wrote about the destruction of this beach in the hands of many of the people who leave their trash all over it. Which could be read here.
Well the destruction continues not only to this beach but many beaches and rivers around the island. Allow me to introduce to you behind the scenes of Puerto Rico. This is the entrance to a beautiful beach, poza de las mujeres.
This is how many of the people treat it. Oh and there is a large dumpster 10 feet to the right of this that sits empty. Then many people would say they need more garbage cans every where conveniently there for them. The people don’t need more garbage cans, they need more brain. The problem is that they are too lazy to walk to the trash can.
Many of the people on this island just want to drink ,eat and have a good time and to the hell with everything else. This is how is many places like this end up all over this beautiful lost paradise. Truly shameful.
Why would you want to come back to this. But I am sure many people expect someone to come clean up for them, which I have been doing for the last 6 years trying to maintain this beautiful island to be the paradise that it is. But I think it is hopeless,
Your ancestors would be ashamed
The ancestors would be spinning in their graves seeing how many of the people are treating this paradise. Your ancestors that sweated blood and tears to build this island.
I have lived here for the last 9 years now and it seems like I came here to pick up after many of the people who do this, who have no love for the island, yet I was not born here nor raised here but it sure seems like I love this island than most of the people who do this.
But I am sure many of you who treat the island like this would wave your flags proudly. Sorry to say but that pride doesn’t mean nothing when you do this. . Please tell me why many of you want to destroy this paradise? why do you want this paradise to be turned into a landfill. Please help me understand.
It’s your turn to pick up
I just finished taking garbage out of the beach itself. Which I made a video and will be coming soon on my youtube.
I was going to pick it up. But I am exhausted by this. I left garbage bags on top it’s your turn to pick up. I challenge you. Go and pick up one bagful of garbage each. Take my one bag challenge as I wrote here. Let’s reverse this trend and let’s take care of this paradise.
In closing
Many people would be angry at me for speaking out against this. How can you accept this as normal and not be outraged. I love this island and if you love this land, then you will defend it and take care of it and not allow your home to be destroyed. We just choose to stay silent and ignore the problems and just continue to drown in them. Wake up. this is paradise.
