Ecology in a Small Village

Yavesia is a small village of around 750 inhabitants in a valley in the Sierra Norte
Mountains. It is a very ecological village. People here work hard to keep their forests alive.

inhabitants are trying to find new ways to use their forests.

Yavesia is a beautiful village. The streets are clean and there is no litter. The people

and “Wash your hands before eating.” Dog owners have to keep their pets in their own
gardens. The inhabitants are proud of their town.

There also isn’t any water pollution. Near the village, there is a clear pool of water. It is
