LEARN TO BE AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE NATURAL WORLD

Society and civilization has been overtaken by convenience and consumerism.
On Isla MuertoS we are gradually learning to live a sustainable lifestyle, working with nature to provide for our needs.

resources​

Living offgrid we depend on natural resources which need to be managed carefully and creatively. 
​These are some of the technologies we are installing to sustain our activities:
* solar panels for power
* wells for drinking water
* rainwater harvesting
* gravity fed water distribution

biodiversity

The island was logged dramatically over 70 years ago after which it was pretty much abandoned.
​This had positive effects:
*  development of rich topsoil
*  no ground pollution
*  balanced animal populations
It also had a negative impact:
*  predominance of American palms
*  soil erosion and dry hot zones
