Perhaps it is a victim of its own success, having already protected nearly 30% of its national territory. Still, this is a very poor country and deserves credit for its progress on just this very issue. In fact, Costa Rica and New Zealand are the only countries in the world to have announced their intentions and to have set goals to become carbon neutral. When you consider where to go for your next holiday, please consider my adopted homeland - for all the right reasons. I wonder why Costa Rica is not included in this group of “favored nations”.

Being a vegetarian is not only the healthiest thing you can do for yourself but it swill save about an acre a year in deforrestation. I suggest to all my neighbors tp plant more trees and harvest rainwater. We need all hands on deck. Let's save the polar bears and all the other animals. Peace. Everyone could help.
