Christiana Figueres: ‘Costa Rica is in danger of losing what it’s gained’

TicoTimes

This woman is asking Ticos to stop and think about the future of their country.

I am wondering if it is already too late - that they have lost the ability to think about any question so abstract - so far removed from the immediate present and their own personal affairs.

Costa Rica has benefited enormously from their revolution of 1947, led by her own father - that made it the most advanced country in Central America.

The leaders of their country then, were determined to make Costa Rica a better country - and they succeeded. Now, they are faced with strong regressive forces, and they are failing.

To be fair, many other countries, including the US, the UK, and the EU - have also failed at this task.
