Bacalar Chico Marine & Wildlife Reserve sale protest

According to 7News Belize, the Government of Belize is planning to 'De-Reserve' atleast 3,000 acres of the Bacalar Chico Marine & Wildlife Reserve in Northern Ambergris Caye, and sell the land to developers. According to reports, the deal is all but done. Residents of Ambergris Caye are being urged to come together and protest this issue.

Bacalar Chico comprises a 15,000-acre marine reserve and 12,000 acres of terrestrial reserve and has been named a World Heritage Site by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). It sits at the northern tip of Ambergris Caye overlooking the Bay of Chetumal and Mexico.

Below is a PDF Petition against this move that can be downloaded (in English or Spanish). This petition can also be found at Seaduced, Ambergris Jade, Travel and Tour, and Area Rep. Manuel Heredia's office. It states that Voters and Concerned Citizens strongly disagree with the plan to sell acreage in the reserve. You can also get copies to bring to others to sign and then bring the full page of signatures back to the above places.

There is a box next to each name that should ONLY be checked if you are a voter. If you choose to get signatures, make sure that only voters check that box. Help us protect this very special spot on Ambergris Caye.

Tourism provides the fuel for the economic engine of San Pedro Town, but it is the business community of our island that drives it. Business people know better than anyone when a crisis affecting the whole community is about to strike at the heart of our island and business people, more than any other group, can help ensure that Ambergris Caye holds on to the prosperity that people here have worked so hard to achieve.

With this in mind, Business owners throughout the island have come together to speak with one voice on issues that affect everyone who lives and works on Ambergris Caye. Lead by Chairman Elito Arceo and Secretary Rebecca Arceo amoung others, the San Pedro Business Association is focusing on many key issues including:
