Profile - Rosa Limón
Environmental Activist
By Josef Kandoll
Activism isn’t only about waving placards and holding demonstrations.
Activist Rosa Limón fronts the Grupo Ecológico Iguana
de Puerto Vallarta, which monitors progress in relation to the environment.
Some would say she’s against it, but she recognizes that there
are those who step around the rules. The thing is, you can’t be
opinionated without ruffling some feathers.
If necessary, she shows up with placards and supporters who know how
to get people riled.
With connections to the international Green Peace organization, she
says they can move quickly to block or denounce private or governmental
decisions.
Their current hot buttons are the future of El Salado, recycling, reforestation
and basic environmental health.
