rainforestation farm had served as an inspiration for many Negrense to also
adopt rainforestation since his rainforestation farm had given him the
opportunity to venture into eco-tourism.
Mayor Eufracio “Dodong” Maratas
As a public servant, Mayor Maratas acquired his interest
in rainforestation way back to the years when he was still a councilor in his
municipality in the year 2000. Mayor Maratas was convinced with the idea of
rainforestation since he perceived it as a way to save and sustain the

sustainability
Amended Growth
“the world economy is moving towards a
time of great stagnation (Cowen, 2011). According to Cowen, there are no low
hanging fruits anymore. By this he means that the day of the inexpensive
access to resources is already over. Hence, the extreme increase in
productivity following from migration of the labor force and global competition
is close to exhaustion (Cowen, 2011). Hence, a slower pace of innovation is a
crucial point in explaining lower rates of productivity rise.
