The Times, UK :
The Stein family made a moral decision to leave 850 hectares of their family farm untouched, and to build a lodge (predominantly out of wood discarded by loggers) as alternative source of income. They demonstrate how environmentally-sound ecotourism can and should be done, restricting the number of guests, eschewing electricity, harnessing solar energy to heat water, using bio-degradable soaps, composting, recycling glass and plastics, and purifying water using bacteria, enzymes, and water lilies. They established Fundación Cuencas de Limón, to boot, a non-profit organization dedicated to watershed protection and educational programs, and offset carbon emissions produced by your air travel by planting trees
