Central America is one of the worldâs richest biodiversity hotspots. Many of the regionâs ecosystems lie in trans-boundary watersheds, which form an integral part of the wider Central American Protected Areas System and are pillars for conservation of the regionâs significant biological resources. The Conservation of Central American Watersheds project is working to improve the management of two of these watersheds: Bocas del Toro/Cahuita/RÃo Cañas in Panama and Costa Rica, and the Gulf of Honduras in Guatemala, Honduras, and Belize. By strengthening local capacity to accelerate the implementation of land-use and conservation plans, providing incentives for businesses to adopt best environmental practices, and forging alliances for conservation, the project is helping to conserve these fragile but economically critical watersheds.

The technology M&A marketplace is set for a rebound, driven by a convergence of higher stock prices and a willingness among buyers to "loosen the purse strings" after months of cash conservation. So says Jeff Bistrong, managing director with the middle market-focused investment bank Harris Williams & Co. In this edition of Inside the Deal, Bistrong says the result is an increase in stock deals and transformational acquisitions. - Suzanne Stevens
Leading economic expert Jim Rogers traveled to 150 countries over 150,000 miles in three years - follow his adventures here on FentonReport.
In this video Jim visits the Ngorongoro Crater in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area of Tanzania.
The main feature of the NCA is the Ngorongoro Crater, which is the world's largest unbroken, unflooded volcanic caldera. The Crater, which formed when a giant volcano exploded and collapsed on itself some two to three million years ago, is 610 m (2,001 ft) deep and its floor covers 260 km² (102 square miles). Estimates of the height of the original volcano range from fifteen to nineteen thousand feet (4500 to 5800 metres) high.
Although thought of as "a natural enclosure" for a very wide variety of wildlife, up to 20% or more of the wildebeest (Connochaetes taurinus) and half the zebra (Equus burchelli) populations vacate the Crater in the wet season. However, an effect of this 'enclosure' situation means that the population of Ngorongoro lions is severely inbred, with ...

http://Save-Energy-Home.com | Home Energy Check
Many participants of the Home Energy Check saw a unique role for energy companies in promoting energy conservation and facilitating a transition to more sustainable energy systems. Some Home Energy Check participants suggested that the major oil companies could be more forthcoming with accurate information on reserves and an indication of when world production is likely to peak. Several Home Energy Check observers believed that peak oil is far closer than most people think, and Home Energy Check followers felt that the oil industry itself had an obligation to the world public to bring clarity to this issue and thus bring a sense of urgency to conservation efforts. Please visit Save-Energy-Home.com to learn how easy it is to get a Home Energy Check and save energy tomorrow.
