GREEN TULUM

Green Tulum is a beautiful hotel made up of thirteen cabanas in the heart of the Riviera Maya. It rises up from among the lush vegetation of Tulum, seamlessly combining civilization with the surrounding jungle. Its rustic rooms radiate an aura of tranquility that will make you instantly fall in love with the mystical Mayan lands. The gardens of Green Tulum are your own private jungle where you can spend an unforgettable trip.

ECOTIP: If you subscribe to your favorite magazines instead of buying them from a newsstand, you'll get the convenience of delivery and will save 75 percent or more off the newsstand price. Sixty percent of most magazines at the newsstand aren't sold and have to be hauled off to the trash dump- a waste of time, money, and energy.


ECOTIP: Download tunes instead of purchasing them at the store. The average price of CD is about $ 15 dlls., whereas an album download is only about $10 dlls. Each month, more than 45 tons of CD's become obsolete- outdated or unwanted- and end up in landfills.


ECOTIP: Lawn Care
Cut your grass so it´s two inches high, and leave the clippings on the lawn. You´ll spend less time mowing and raking, and you won´t have to water your lawn as much. Forty percent of water in summer is allocated to outdoor usage when rates are highest. Also, less lawn care usually means using fewer chemicals that will leach into runoff water and damage local fish and bird habitats.

Ecocancun tips!

ECOTIP: Car Idling
Limit the amount of time you let your vehicle´s engine run in the garage. An idling vehicle emits 20 times more pollution than one traveling 32 miles per hour.


ECOTIP: Outdoor Lighting
Turn off your outside lights when they´re not needed.If possible, use timers or monitor sensors.


ECOTIP: Washers
Set warm wash and cold rinse cycles, and save 90 % ever the energy used when machine washing in hot water only. Together, all households could save the energy equivalent of thousands barrels of oil a day by swithching from hot-hot to warm-cold cycles. Thanks!

XCARET

XCARET:Known as ''nature's sacred paradise'', Xcaret is one of the world's most famous eco-archaeological parks. Here, you will find archaeological ruins, a dolphin show, horses, a farm with tropical birds, butterflies, bat caves and a stunning beach. You can go also snorkeling in the famous caves and the well known underground river.

CEIBA DEL MAR BEACH AND SPA RESORT IN PUERTO MORELOS

CEIBA DEL MAR BEACH AND SPA RESORT IN PUERTO MORELOS
The resort's design merges modern and traditional Mexican architecture, with locally crafted furnishings built with materials native to the region, and guest rooms and suites are housed in thatched-roof buildings scattered along the beach. The holistic and aromather...apy SPA at Ceiba del Mar offers an extensive menu of signature treatments, and the main restaurant, Xtabay, serves regional gourmet cuisine. There are two oceanfront swimming pools, and at night guests are introduced to exotic regional rituals, including a sunset temazcal ceremony on the beach .

Outdoor Lighting

Dry Cleaning


If you must use dry cleaners, try to go less frequently. You will not only save on drive time and fuel, you´ll save plastic. Dry cleaners bunch items together into plastic garment bags, so the more items you bring at once, the better.

Better yet: Request no plastic garment bags, and return your hang...ers to the dry cleaners. You can also try eco-friendly dry cleaners.

DEATH TRADITIONS IN MEXICO Día de muertos

DEATH TRADITIONS IN MEXICO Día de muertos

We, in Mexico, celebrate Death on November 1st and 2nd every year. The Day of the Dead celebrations in Mexico can be traced back to the indigenous cultures. Rituals celebrating the deaths of ancestors have been observed by these civilizations perhaps for as long as 2,500–3,000 y...ears

Due to occurring shortly after Halloween, the Day of the Dead is sometimes thought to be a similar holiday, although the two are celebrated differently.

PRE-HISPANIC CITY OF CHICHÉN-ITZÁ

Chichén-Itzá is one of the largest and most impressive archaeological sites in Mexico, located two hours by bus from Cancun. It is two cities: one was ruled by the Mayans from the 6th to the10th century A.D. and the other was a Toltec-Mayan city that emerged in 1000 A.D. The site combin...es Toltec and Mayan influences and is ripe with cosmological symbolism. Its four sides contain 365 steps, 52 panels and 18 terraces (for the 18 months of the religious year). The site also contains a cenote (limestone sacred well or sinkhole) and an observatory. -UNESCO

SHOWER CURTAINS


Avoid using plastic liners (you don't really need them) with your shower curtains, and you'll keep unnatural vinyl plastic out of landfills. PVC plastic waste amounts several million tons per year, and none of them are recyclable.
 
TRASH BAGS


Use leftover paper or plastic bags as liners for your trash cans. You'll save money and time shopping in the trash- liner bag aisle. When one ton of plastic bag is reused, the energy nequivalent of eleven barrels of oil is saved. WHen one ton of paper bags is reused, up to 17 trees are spared.

SIAN KA´AN

SIAN KA´AN


In the language of the Mayan peoples who once inhabited this region, Sian Ka'an means 'Origin of the Sky'. Located on the east coast of the Yucatán peninsula, this biosphere reserve contains tropical forests, mangroves and marshes, as well as a large marine section intersected by a barrier reef. It provides a... habitat for a remarkably rich flora and a fauna comprising more than 300 species of birds, as well as a large number of the region's characteristic terrestrial vertebrates, which cohabit in the diverse environment formed by its complex hydrological system.- UNESCO

ECOTIPS

Preheating
If you're boiling, roasting, or baking a dish that will cook for an hour or more, don't bother preheating your oven. Even for breads and cakes, never preheat for longer than 10 min. If you reduce the amount of time your oven is on by one hour per year, you'll save an average of two kw hours of energy.

Restaurants
Take home what you don´t eat, and ask for a little packaging as possible. Use it for your dog or as a compost for your lawn or garden. This reduces food scraps and the disposal costs that restaurants bear.

EcoCancunTips

ECOCancunTIPS:

Paper


Paper is made mostly from wood pulp (trees) and water. This is important because paper is the most common form of waste. Much of it can be recycled, but that still means more energy has to be used to reprocess it. Using less paper means saving energy, trees, water, and the chemicals needed in the man...ufacturing process. Trees are important because they prevent erosion and they absorb carbon from teh air and turn it into the oxygen we breathe.
 
Composting


Keep your kitchen scraps from fruits, vegetables, and coffee grounds in a composting bin or container. Try adding them to your garden or starting a compost site in the yard. You´ll grow a better garden, create deeper topsoil, recycle nutrients, and save landfill space by composting kitchen scraps inst...ead of sending them away with the trash.

BACALAR

Bacalar Lagoon of the seven colors is in the south of Cancun. With a length of some 50 miles from North to South it seems like a wide turquoise river flowing through the jungle. Bacalar´s turquoise waters are enhanced by the deep green tone of the mangroves and reed beds.
Bacalar lagoon is linked to the Rio Hondo by the Chaac canal. The perfect place to access the mayan ruins of Kohunlich and Chacchoben. Majahual, Costa Maya port . Care Free Retiring , Investing , Casino Gambling , Duty Free Shopping , Water Front condos, Premium Real Estate, Rentals . Costa Maya , Majahual , Chinchorro , Fishing , Restaurant , Spa , Safari Park , Cave diving , Windsurfing , Boating , Canoeing , Kayaking , Bird watching , Mayan ruins of Kohunlich and Chacchoben
RANCHO ENCANTADO ECO-RESORT is a small and charming retreat where you can find release from all the stress gathered in your daily life. Admire the gorgeous natural landscapes of Laguna Bacalar and enjoy an amazing time in a full ecological experience.

EcoCancunTips

Baby Body Wash. There is no need to buy expensive body washes when mild soap and warm water will work perfectly well for bathing your baby. If you purchase paper-wrapped soap instead of plastic bottles of body wash you will save on money and packaging. If every baby born this yeat were bathed with a bar o...f baby soap instead of a bottle of body wash, the plastic packaging saved would weigh more than 200 000 pounds!!

“organic” means:
Simply stated, organic produce and other ingredients are grown without the use of pesticides, synthetic fertilizers, sewage sludge, genetically modified organisms, or ionizing radiation. Animals that produce meat, poultry, eggs, and dairy products do not take antibiotics or growth hormones.

ISLA CONTOY

CONTOY Island


Enjoy an unforgettable experience crossing the majestic Caribbean Sea to get to a place few have had the privilege to discover: Isla Contoy.
This unspoilt island, which measures barely 5.2 miles long and only 70 ft. at its narrowest point, is located about 45 minutes north of Isla Mujeres, on one end of t...he second largest coral reef in the world. Contoy is famous for its flora and fauna, specially for its birds of which more than 90 species are considered either resident or migratory, turning the island into a delight for people that like to do birdwatching.

EcoCancunTips

Lipstick.Given than the average woman may inadvertently ingest mora than 4 punds of lipstick in her lifetime, you´ll want to look for lip color made from plant-derived ingredients instead of from synthetic oils, paraffin waxes, and toxic coal tar dyes (look for FD&C or D&C followed by a color and number).... If one in five lipstick wearers began demanding plant-based options, total petroleum product consumption would decrease by more than 825,000 pounds per year.
Pet beds. The next time your canine or feline friend needs a new bed, look for one that is filled with recycled fiber. If one in every 20 dog owners purchased a bed made from recycled materials, the fiber savings would total nearly 3,200 tons and fill 400 grabage trucks.
FISH TANKS. When you clean your fish tank, remove only one-third to one half of the water and use it as a nutrient-rich solution for house and outdoor plants. You´ll conserve water and eliminate the need for chemical fertilizers. If every fish owner adopted this habit, the freshwater saved annually would ...be enough to fill 24 ounce bottles for each of the 1.2 billion people in the world without access to safe drinking water.

EcoCancunTips

*Water bottles. Bring your own reusable water bottle filled with filtered water from home everytime you go to the gym. You could save an average of $200 usd per year as well as 14 pounds of plastic.

*Share With Friends. Share things like books, magazines, movies, games, and newspapers between friends and neighbors.

*Replace Disposables: Wherever possible, replace disposable products with reusable ones i.e., razor, food storage, batteries, ink cartridges (buy refill ink), coffee filters, furnace or air conditioner filters, etc.

*Deodorant. When you buy deodorant (there are organic options), try to avoid antiperspirants, which use aluminium salts to seal up to your pores. In addition to being a potential health toxin, aluminum takes a tremendous amount of energy to mine. If you buy one stick of aluminum-free deodorant, the energy sabed could power your laptop for 30 min!!!

*Sponges. Instead of buying a synthetic nylon sponge, consider using a completely natural and biodegradable loofah or a plain reusable washcloth. Since nylon is made from petroleum and can´t be recycled, you´ll conserve the energy used to make it, as well as the environmental cost of disposing of it.

Need airport shuttle transportation?

We offer two types of ground transportation with comfort and security from Cancun International Airport to any hotel in Cancun and the Mayan Riviera. Most of our shuttles are late model air-conditioned vans carrying up to 10 passengers comfortably.

On making mistakes

Mistakes matter. How you recover from them matters even more. The best way to handle a mistake is to learn from the mistake. Then you’ll not repeat it nor ever be paralysed by the fear of making another mistake.

COZUMEL for less than 30 usd!

Cozumel is a beautiful island in the Mexican Caribbean. Famous all over the world for its coral reefs, there are plenty of water sports such as diving, deep-sea fishing, snorkeling, kayaking and more. Cozumel's mostly undeveloped territory at the center of the island is covered by jungle and swampy lagoons, which are home to tiny mammals and endemic birds that have never left the island. Noteworthy is the Chankanaab National Park, a Cozumel icon, and the Punta Sur Ecological Reserve. This huge protected area at the southern tip of the island includes Punta Celarain and its historical lighthouse, as well as the Colombia Lagoon, a shelter for many of the island's endemic species, as well as other endangered forms of life, such as marine turtles and their nesting areas.
