Born in
Yorkshire, England in 1953, Chris came to live in Ibiza after spending
thirteen years travelling the world as a radio officer in the British
Merchant Navy. He was one of the founding members and president of the
local Friends of the Earth group in 1989. In 1993, he founded the
CASITA VERDE
model ecology centre,
using a small rented house near San Jose. After trying unsuccessfully to
establish a couple of different commercial Ecological Centres, including
the 'Eivissa Ecolandia' pilot project during 2001, Chris decided to
re-focus his attention on improving the facilities and potential of the
CASITA VERDE.
At the same time, and with the help of others, he began to develop the 'Green
Heart'
strategy plan, with the idea of including the whole island of Ibiza in a
new and more global project. Wishing
you all the best from
Casita Verde, |
