Answer 1

No, flying off to do some rainforest preservation. have you done an environmental audit on this venture? and what exactly do you think you'll be doing when you get there? The best way to preserve rainforests is to comsume less, especially palm oil and other poducts which use land from rainforest clearance.

If you were going by boat and taking direct action against the logging companys, then fair play to you, but no.

It won't be long before employers start to see through this 'noble volunteering life experience' charade. If any pay any attention to it in the first place, or is it all nepotism anyway?

Soory, but you caught me in a bad mood from "don't you like global warming?"

Answer 2

Flying across two continents to save a tree is a bit hypocritical and counter productive when you think about it.  You can contribute more to saving the rainforest by not wasting your time and money travelling there just to find out you aren't qualified to make a real difference anyway.

Look up Costa Rica rainforest tours online and you'll receive plenty of leads
