Adaptation of turtle beach Junquillal to climate change (by CAVU and WWF, 8 min English version)

Marine turtles and their nesting beaches are threatened by sea level rise and overheating, resulting from climate change. A WWF project in Junquillal beach, Costa Rica, joins forces with the community to lead the implementation of adaptation measures, such as: coastal planning in consideration of sea level rise and expected flooding, restoration of coastal vegetation for shade and educating children with a new awareness for the links between climate, nature conservation and community well-being.This video is the abridged (8 min) version of the full length (24 min) documentary "Playas Calientes - Olas Furiosas" (2009).

Your 4 year comeback took you 4 days to write. Remember, my dad is watching you.

[MsPink67]

@bkhuna So yes, you are like 11.

Because the matter of the fact is; I don't know you.

You don't know me. So how will your dad find me?

That's the year 4 comeback. Meaning you have nothing else to say so you say something completely irelevant.

[bkhuna]

What does the WWF (World Wrestling Federation) have to do with Turtles? Are they teaching the turtles to wrestle?

[bkhuna]

@MsPink67...Maybe I am. And maybe I'm gonna have my dad kick your ass.

[MsPink67]

@bkhuna

Buahahahha.

Wow what are you? Like 11?

[bkhuna]

@MsPink67, thanks for your reply. I accept your apology, and forgive you for the foul comment. No problem. Some people just learn a little later than others. Have a great day.

[MsPink67]

@bkhuna ''You are right I never really thought of it that way.'' I didn't know you controlled the environment. Another thing, turtles were on the planet before us. It's like us not living in a house because someone else came and decided it was a ''struggle''.Dick wad.

Oh and real smooth on commenting on your own comment.

makes you look completely cool.

some people.

bkhuna. You are right. I never really thought of it that way. Turtles are a nuisance anyway. Have an awesome day!

wtf dude wtf?

Ever notice how much of a struggle it is for a turtle to walk on land? They don't fucking belong here. Tell you what, if they just stay the hell off of our land, I won't come into the water and kill them.
