In today's world of resort development, environmental language is essential to landing big value deals in environmentally sensitive areas. In this new language of our future, the savviest development company speaks this unusual language in suave and confident tones.

This new context intrigues me. At the same time, I'm tired of these ecology stories. But curious, I open a few doors.

Behind these doors, I learn that not only the residents of Guana Cay are fighting against these foreign invaders. Neighboring cays have begun to support the effort to save Guana Cay. Native Bahamians from across the archipelago are showing their support for the small islet of Guana Cay. And, deep within the Bahamas Government, a secret society has formed to show that the Discovery Land Company and the Government of Bahamas are acting illegally, to fill their pocket books.

A man calls me. The first thing he does, he says he'll talk, if I don't reveal his identity.
