Pax Terra: Improving Models, Solving Social Problems

Never has environmental policy been more important to the world. Until now, attempts to implement new measures establishing international environmental and ecological solutions have been rendered ineffective by bureaucracy and red tape. Pax Terra offers a new model for sustainable ecotourism and ecosystem management that has the potential to change to the rules of the game.

Puerto San Carlos, Mexico (PRWEB) June 19, 2009 -- Never has environmental policy been more important to the world. Until now, attempts to implement new measures establishing international environmental and ecological solutions have been rendered ineffective by bureaucracy and red tape. Pax Terra offers a new model for sustainable ecotourism and ecosystem management that has the potential to change to the rules of the game.

Thousands of conferences are held each year by the United Nations intended to specifically combat racism, support efforts to prevent global climate change and work to correct environmental and ecological policy. All too often these conferences burn through millions of dollars and basically change nothing. Pax Terra aims to change that.

Recently in Bonn, Germany, largely unnoticed by the news media, a climate conference sponsored by the UN was attended by more than 2600 delegates from 175 countries. Shortly before, in December 2008, a UN climate conference took place in Poznan, Poland. 11,000 delegates came together to work on climate issues in Nairobi, Kenya in 2006.

What do these frequent conferences really accomplish?

Just as the UN demonstrated efforts to combat racism--there were other recent, widely covered conferences known as Durban I and Durban II--which accomplished little beyond further damaging the UN's reputation by promoting an agenda supplied by countries with poor records on human rights, such as Iran, Libya, and Cuba. It's unfortunate this attitude also affects another policy, environmental policy, and further demonstrates the failure of the UN to help find solutions to ecosystem management issues.

These global climate conferences have influence only insofar as the delegates arrive by aircraft, which are a primary source of global CO2 emissions and then discuss how the global CO2 emissions could be reduced. Nevertheless, the conferences do have "a relevant impact," at least on the hotel and catering industry. Thousands of participants need housing for days and consume huge quantities of food.

Pax Terra has a better way

If the Pax Terra model were followed, there would be no place for large, ineffective, and wasteful international bureaucracies. Smaller, efficiently run, and quick to respond organizations would act to make a real difference in the world by taking action rather than issuing statements that are motivated by politics. They would be much more effective in promoting and implementing real solutions to serious problems.

On June 20, 2009 at Magdalena Bay, Baja California Mexico, Pax Terra will make a presentation that will demonstrate how it does its work. Here is a listing of some of the points that will be covered:

The Situation in Magdalena Bay

 
  • Foreign buyers pay local prices diminishing abundant local sea harvest
  • Foreign buyers demand more product, resulting in unsafe fishing conditions as sea harvest diminishes
  • Foreign buyers make loans that indebt local fishing industries as local debt increases
  • Local sea harvest drops below sustainable fishing harvest, local fisherman leave the area
  • Foreign buyers exchange loan debt for real properties and government confiscates the fisherman real property
  • Foreign developers put tourist condos on properties formerly owned by local fisherman
  • Foreign buyers build sea harvest farms in non-sustainable, over-fished sea harvest areas
  • Mexican nationals become commercial tourist service industry employees

Pax Terra's solution to the problem

 
  • Provide global web internet promotions of all Magdalena Bay Sea Abundance events, e.g., the Tortuga Festival & Whale Festival
  • Global web sales & services
  • Merchandise sales
  • Local crafts offerings
  • Offering marketing services to ecotourism management ventures
  • Grant micro loans from donations solicited for the Pax Terra cause
  • Distribute scientific information distribution
  • Make Pax Terra sponsorships widely available
  • Affordable ecotourism accommodation rentals
  • Pax Terra ecotourism packages
  • Premium content available for purchase
  • Selling demographic information
  • Mexican nationals become business owners and run their own sustainable ecotourism-related ventures and become globally operating entrepreneurs

BRUMMA A.C.: Restoring Nature's Balance

Pax Terra as a social enterprise provides the bulk of its promotion income to BRUMMA A.C., which has been established to restore Magdalena Bay to its maximum recreational and ecologically balanced commercial harvest potential. Pax Terra as a social enterprise provides the bulk of its promotion income to BRUMMA A.C., which has been established to restore Magdalena Bay to its maximum recreational and ecologically balanced commercial harvest potential. Through BRUMMA, the newly established Mexican nonprofit, which was designed for this purpose under the guidance of resource allocation experts, Pax Terra presents marketing and promotional workshops to other nonprofits. BRUMMA puts Pax Terra's mission into practical form, generating revenues that can be used to support Pax Terra's activities. BRUMMA works with local and national ecotourism management groups in both Mexico and the U.S to introduce new and more effective advertising campaigns to attract visitors to Mexico, which will contribute to the economic stability needed to support the sustainable ecotourism economy.

The Event

The Pax Terra/BRUMMA presentation will start at 3:00 pm on Saturday, June 20 and is expected to last 90 minutes followed by a fiesta. Expected attendees include Congressman Adolfo Gonzalez Agundez, Humberto Arias Espinoza, the Mayor of Puerto San Carlos, newspaper journalists and representatives of several NGOs.

The event will be streamed live over www.pax-terra.org.
