the world’s tropical rainforests and the incredible biodiversity
they contain, together with the indigenous people who
still
depend on them for their survival. The organization has
projects throughout the world, including Ecuador, Costa
Rica, Panama,
Sri Lanka and Brazil, as well as a project they are assisting
in Zambia.

The Sloth Club
The Sloth Club is one of the organizations that has continually supported
DECOIN and the alternative initiatives taking place in Intag. It is a
Japanese based organization created to, among other things, making people
aware of
the negative effects of a harried-consumer based lifestyle. They are
in favor of taking the time to do things right, and, in general, slow
down. They
take the Sloth as their “model animal”, a mammal whose environmental impact
is minimal, and lifestyle is in total harmony with its environment. Check
out their web site for more information: http://www.sloth.gr.jp/
