Episode description

Costa Rica is an international icon in all things environmental, and mitigating climate change is no exception. But when Rodrigo Chaves Robles assumed the presidency in 2022, he put this policy into peril. Savvy strategists and campaigners have flexed the power of Costa Rican identity and dedication to conservation to get businesses, activists and policymakers to work together to keep Costa Rica “libre de perforación” or free of perforation. Hear how Costa Rican advocates are mobilizing young people, calling BS on the opposition’s tired economy versus environment arguments, and securing a future free of fossil fuels.
