No, that isn't what I meant.
Costa Rica does not run 100% on renewables. It's literally and simply a media half-baked feel good fiction.
They still have gas cars, diesel busses, diesel generators, &c.
They still emit tons and tons of carbon. They currently emit 1.64 metric tons per person, more than twice what their neighbors in Nicaragua do.
They're carbon neutral in the greasy, lawyer, "well technically we meant this" way that you should never, ever take seriously.
A Costa Rican has about 1/7 the emissions of an American.
