Thinking about how some visitors – due to lack of information – inappropriately treat the use of our beach, we made 10 suggestions that, if followed, will greatly improve the quality of life of those who live in and those who visit Jericoacoara. Paula Salles Hernandez's idea was implemented by the SENAC Cooking course class. And now, on the initiative of a group of residents represented by Iracema Dagan, each inn and restaurant in Jeri will print these 10 suggestions and place them in a visible place (menu, notice board, etc.), thus contributing to their dissemination.
THE 10 SUGGESTIONS
1 – Leave your car (or motorcycle) in the parking lot or even in Jijoca. You are in a National Park: Watch over Nature.
2 – Take care of your waste: you are solely responsible for the waste you produce.
3 – Do not take shells, pebbles or plants from the National Park; other visitors have a right to find nature intact.
4 – When leaving the inn, turn off the light, the air and close the taps tightly: water is a common good and everyone should have access.
5 – Get to know the local culture so you interact with the people and the history of the place.
6 – Kindness generates kindness (poet Gentileza).
7 – Only hire accredited local services, so you have somewhere to complain if something goes wrong.
8 – Respect silence. Your musical style may not be your neighbor's; never use loud music on the street. Other people came to Jericoacoara to hear the sounds of nature.
9 – Schedule your appointments to leave at the desired time.
10 – A conscious trip enriches your vacation and contributes to Sustainable Tourism.
