Adiós, Presidente!
Farewell to a great leader, President Santos, sometimes misunderstood by many of my fellow countrymen, history will judge him benevolently, he was someone who bet all his political capital on Colombia’s peace agreement among many other progressive policies.
I have to say it was a truly honor to work under President Santos command, and accomplished all objectives on green economic ,financial, and market instruments as well as developed the Green National Business plan where we had accomplished more than a thousand green business! ,creating more than 7,000 truly green jobs, showing more than 50 million usd on net sales of green micro-entrepreneurs .
We did it! , we did harvest the pillar of green growth as the new vision. Proud, proud to have worked as Head of Office at the now well renamed Green Business Office at Colombian Ministry of Environmental & Sustainable Development. A new age has begun in Colombia, let us pray for keeping the right and only track we could take, the sustainable development way !
The results of our National Green Biz Plan. 2014-2018 (1st Q)- Numbers dont lie ;
On the Green Economic, Financial & Market instruments area; these are our magnificent results on Santos last period 2014-2018

The environmental compensatory rates, unlike a tax in which the economic resources goes to a common stock , the compensatory rates seek to compensate the footprint or an anthropocentrically generated impact. Remuneration rates under the polluter pays principle
