Bianca .. why don’t you make a video about something more internal like The islanders own ignorance about their own island and living it … STILL TILL TODAY PARENTS IN THE ISLAND LIVE MORE in fear about the crimes done inside the island …By the very own people filled with paranoia , fear , bullying among the natives…You people have no pride for yourselves , why do these videos in English ?!, come on , there’s more dangers than Some Americans lurking to steal the island …The dangers are among the locals

Hi Bianca I have watched your KZread Channel. It is excellent and I admire all you have done. May I have a chance to work with you?

This story moved me to tears. Amazing delivery, very moving storytellers. The pride of the beautiful people of Culebra is so inspiring. Thank you SO MUCH.

I've recently discovered your channel and the content is eye opening to say the least. Please continue your great work and coverage on Puerto Rico.

Sadly your - swallowing blindly - highly contaminated information.

Hi Bianca - I just discovered your channel when I caught the video you did on Maui, which sparked my interest in your videos on your home, Puerto Rico. Your work is brilliant - you present the issues in a simple, easy to understand fashion, telling the story through the eyes of the locals, and it is a pleasure to watch, and makes us pause, think, and reflect as well. You are hitting a lot of the right buttons, particularly about the impact of foreign investment, mass tourism, and the displacement of people - which in various ways is happening all over the world from Sydney to Bangkok, to London to Puerto Rico. Thanks to you and your team for the great work you are doing, I wish you all the success in the world. Ivan M. Paton p.s. You might consider adding a products shop if. you don't have one already, come up with some great designs for t-shirts, cups, caps etc., about Puerto Rico - every source of income helps.

Don't give up the fight!!! Stand up viva Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 💪

I get choked up aftet each video. Keep them coming. ❤❤❤

Not the Rich. It's you Gringos . Destroying our Island.

The thing is..once they illegally give these permits and they dig and/or build even a little, the ecological impact is already there and it’s very hard to reverse. It can’t be that the politicians/people who work for these agencies are just giving away permits like nothing, and then when they get caught and challenged, they take away the permit and nothing happens to them. The people unlawfully giving away these permits need to face the consequences of their actions. Otherwise, they’ll keeping doing it for bribes and hoping they don’t get caught and the damage will keep happening. Fixing the ecological damage of even not a fully constructed edifice still involves a lot of $$ and effort to reverse. It can take decades to reverse the damage caused and sometimes, it can’t be reversed. I’ve done some conservation work here in the states and when I visit the island, it drives me insane how there seem to be a lot of ecological violations that many times are ENDORSED or even built by the mayors office/the government. Even some communities in the mountains are like a concrete/asphalt jungle, contrary to the tropical surroundings which you have to look over to see; that’s how much concrete/asphalt some places have. Anyway, great reporting as usual. Proper reporting that’s constantly missing in the mainstream press, especially American mainstream press (I wonder why - go figure).

As is the case in all elective societies, you get the government you vote for..as long as puerto ricans continue voting for whoever promises them easy times, and no-pain solutions and claims they can keep the party going with more debt, PR will continue its slide. No one will lend to a perpetual deadbeat. The only politician speaking any truth in recent times was Fortuno, and we see what the voters did with him. Something for nothing has a powerful allure in the states for sure, but PR seems even more steeped in financial delusion, borne of economic ignorance that thinks government money is “free” money.

Hi the problem with Puerto Rico is that there’s so many people stealing and that’s the awful government so much corruption is going on there and that starts from the top and it should be clean from the top I’m down that your resources I’m not going to the people and show like yours that bring awareness to the people Puerto Rico they need to wake up they need to hold the politicians accountable I’m Puerto Rican I was there about five months ago I was so surprised what I saw the people need to wake up and thank you for your doing for the island😢

Great work! This what I have been saying for a long time, the native people will be pushed of their land, or lose their land to property taxes or an inheritance tax if P.R. becomes a Sate. Thanks for helping to protect the island.

Dios te bendiga Bianca, keep up the good fight! Incredible reporting, camerawork and editing. Wishing you millions of subscribers so people hear your message of the plight of people under colonization. May we all fight that like hell, like the Culebrenses!!

This is what global environmental activism should be like!

Thank you for ALL YOUR HARD WORK!!!!!

I have been visiting Culebra for almost 10 years now and its become a yearly pilgrimage. The first time walked down the little path to Flamenco Beach was such a magical experience. Crystal clear waters, brilliant sand, beautiful Caribbean clouds overhead. Yesterday I walked out to the beach and it brought tears to my eyes. It is now completely covered in sargassum seaweed and so much trash, plastic bottles plastic bags cups forks spoons just left all over the place sticking out of the seaweed. The flamenco redevelopment authority, or whatever it’s called has torn down all the old kiosks and now for the last few years the entire parking area is in complete chaos. It also seems no one is maintaining the beach. Does anyone know what is really going on with the situation there.? They’ve also cut off access to Carlos Rosario. I want to thank Bianca for her excellent reporting on the current situation on this island.

Many Puerto Ricans protestors that trespassed the Vieques Island's Navy based location, were able to speak to many of the militants that were doing military belgic practices there, and were informed that their country president had paid the US government to come to Vieques Island to do their air missile practice there. According to the news and those interviewed on t.v., revealed that the US was making monies by having various of countries to do their military belgic practices exercises there. Some of the Vieques protestors were arrested, while others that escaped came to the media to revealed what they had uncovered. Puerto Rican governor had no clue that the foreigners from other countries were doing there belgic and air missile practices. Everyone thought that all were only US militants, until many of the trespassers interrogated or questioned those there.
