About me:
kari-VE-gen the caribbean vegan
CARIVEGAN! is an organization that is dedicated to bringing vegan, environmental, and ecological matters to light in puerto rico.
ANIMAL RIGHTS
DERECHOS DE LOS ANIMALES
we are currently focusing on the PR animal welfare state, and working with Save A Gato’s TNR (trap neuter & release) program to try to reduce the stray cat population.
estamos actualmente enfocandonos en el estado del bienestar animal de Puerto Rico, y estamos trabajando juntos con el programa TNR ( atrapar, esterelizar, soltar) de Save A Gato para intentar a reducir la población de gatos.
VEGANISM/VEGETARIANISM
o The torture animals are put through in factory farms, as well as the horrible environmental effects, are our main reason for spreading the vegan word on the island.
La tortura que los animales sufren en granjas de fabrica, y sus terribles efectos al ambiente, son nuestras primarias razones para compartir la ideologia vegana en la isla.
o We have made available over 100 Guides to Being Vegetarian in Spanish, as well as English, and other vegetarian publications and media.
o CARIVEGAN! Is also proud to announce we have taken over the spice garden at the Casa Blanca community garden (at the end of Calle St. Sebastian) and have planted many fresh organic herbs using soil from the rainforest in Luquillo, and absolutely no pesticides, insecticides, chemicals, or hormones of any kind.
o When this project is completed, we will be opening the fully-organic garden to the public, and we plan to give free courses including: organic gardening, the difference between organic and genetic growing, and the importance of eating organics.
RECYCLING
We are poud to introduce the CARIVEGAN! recycling project! Puerto Rico has a wonderful recycling program, but no pick-up in Viejo San Juan. So we started a grassroots program to GET SAN JUAN RECYCLING!!
While waiting for a grant from the government (I have a feeling we should get used to the waiting…), we are personally picking up recycling from businesses and asking the residents to meet at the corner of Calle Sol and Calle Tanca from 10 AM-2 PM every Saturday and Sunday to drop off their recycling. We will make the trips to the collection center in Hato Rey.
THE HATO REY RECYCLING STATION:
This drop-off center is very easy to get to, and is open almost all the time! From Route 1 (Luis Muñoz Marín), make a RIGHT at the first light in Hato Rey (after the train station) onto SANa GERMAN. Almost immediately you will see a huge parking lot on your right with a white metal fence around it. The recycling drop off is in the back of this parking lot. Make a RIGHT into the main entrance, and follow signs to the recycling station.

PROGRAMA DE RECICLAJE EN VIEJO SAN JUAN
Puerto Rico lo tiene todo, el mar, selva tropical, musica, cultura, historia y un sistema de recojer reciclaje. Tan bien existen facilidades para procesar aluminio y papel, haciendo papel reciclado accesible para perodicos y revistas.
Lo que no tenemos es un sistema que recoja reciclaje aquí en la ciudad captal. Viejo San juan, para ser exacto. Asi que hicimos nuestro propio!
¿Pero, como iniciamos este programa?
Al principio las discusiones eran sobre la coleccion residencial y de negocios. Asi que se me ocurrio... ¿Quién más trata en latas casi sólo de aluminio, botellas de cristal y vasos plásticos?
¡Después de más de un año de conversación, conspiración, y pichadera, está aquí! ¡el CARIVEGAN! ¡El programa de reciclaje comienza! Sólo comenzamos con 2 negocios a bordo, la cafetería Yurta en la San Francisco (al frente de Senzala Tattoo) y Senzala Tattoo por ahora.
haremos más postes cuando podamos convencer a mas negocios que participen, pero por ahora dejanos un mensaje a felicitarnos!
