Both the beautiful landscapes of San José de Quero and the Cunas River built the great love and respect I have for nature. They taught me how wonderful nature is and the importance of taking care of it. The Cunas River was my main teacher, as it not only taught me how diverse, rich, and important a river can be, but it also taught me how ruthless and unaware humans can be. The Cunas River, which was home to many species of fish and batrachians and the food source of several birds, was polluted mainly by the garbage that the population and some small businesses dumped. As a child, I sadly watched as the fish swam among the plastics and could not understand why this was happening. "Why, if they are so beautiful and defenseless, do we do this?" I used to think. It was there that my initiative for the care of the environment was born, and I started cleaning the river. Cunas was and is my great teacher, the one that every time I visit Chupaca makes me smile when I see it, although unfortunately, its condition has not improved.

The places we have lived in, the ones we have visited, or even those we have only heard about and fallen in love with, are the ones that have taught us the beauty of nature and the importance of caring for it. We should be very grateful to them because they were the ones that awakened our immense love for nature and motivated us to begin this wonderful journey in favor of environmental care and brought us together here, on this platform called Tunza Eco Generation, to continue our work of raising awareness and promoting the conservation and protection of the environment. Let's keep up the great work Eco-Generation family!
