Part 2 of most recent Nosara Civic Association NP episode:
0-1: NCA promotes conservation in Nosara, they do not cover every single aspect of life here. They help protect it from environmental standpoint. They understand people are going to gossip & such, but they recommend people go to specific sources for accurate information per subject & invite people to take action & will direct them to other organizations or help coordinate others to help. But NCA is environment org.
1: Rich rants about everyone coming into or involved in Nosara should be part of the solution, & people should stop gossiping &/or typing online & instead take action whether it is a tiny donation of time &/or $ or big donation of time &/or $. Action is what Nosara needs more than anything
2: Nosara Ton. Rich is confused why people like running. Luis explains Del Mar Academy has done terrific job with event & is making great progress each year.
3: Somos Nosara’s purpose & event are both fantastic. People should check this out & get behind it there is huge areas for improvement & has momentum.
4: Rich rants about bridging cultures & is pleasantly shocked Somos Nosara making such great progress. Their event had over 400 people between community & various organizations & uniting many groups including police, Red Cross, local schools all want an improved Nosara town
5-8: Nosara Corridor speak begins. Thanks to Radl family Finca Montaña starting epic way Nosara can remain protected forever! Land owners can donate land which will go back into government protected areas for perpetuity & this has nothing to do with NCA lawsuit stuff
9: NCA lawsuit discussion begins…

Stay tuned for Part 3!

Part 1 is:
0-2: Traffic complaints & such

6-8: NCA has no connection to anyone trying to develop the reserve, NCA doesn’t want to evict, people can talk to SINAC, Courts, Judges & learn the processes before misdirecting anger
9: Promoting conservation in Nosara is NCA purpose
