This is an email reply to Jennifer, writer of http://www.algarve-beach-life.com/algarve-blog.html (sorry no link from us). On her blog (post: Green Algarve? dated: Monday, July 21, 2008) , she chose to inaccurately pass judgment on the 3ecobees project. Since her blog doesn’t allow for comments (how convenient) we felt it would be best to voice our feedback on our blog (which welcome’s all comments).

Our response:

“Jennifer, thanks for the write up on your blog about 3ecobees.com … I understand with all the green talk, some might assume green washing. However, rest assured this is not the case with 3ecobees. It’s unfortunate you didn’t research the project more closely as you would have seen your opinion on this project is rather incorrect.

I’m not going into detail what 3ecobees stand for, that’s clearly communicated on our site. But again you know this. A link to the 3ecobees site for your readers would have provided accurate information they needed to get the whole story instead of the distorted truth you chose to publish.

We would have been happy to address any questions or doubts you have about our project at the fair or at anytime. So it’s unfortunate that you’ve decided to take this route instead of contacting us to learn more about the project and how you could possibly contribute, rather than taking a bitter stab at a project that you clearly know so little about.

As I’m sure you understand, relocating to a new country has innumerable challenges, we are trying to do the best we can for our community and our business. We would be happy to support your projects and would appreciate the same consideration in return.

If you would really like to understand the project, we’d be happy to talk to you at any time.
