But it has focused \u2018excessively\u2019 on <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.lse.ac.uk\/latamcaribbean\/2018\/02\/01\/costa-ricas-2018-elections-corruption-morality-politics-and-voter-alienation-make-uncertainty-the-only-certainty\/\">sexual and reproductive rights<\/a> at the expense of sustainable development, according to M\u00f3nica Araya, director of citizen-led sustainability platform <a href=\"https:\/\/www.costaricalimpia.org\/\">Costa Rica Limpia<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe will pay a big price for not discussing topics where you see a lot of opportunity for smarter and cleaner development that affects the everyday lives of Costa Ricans,\u201d Araya told <em>Di\u00e1logo Chino<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Costa Rica has long championed progressive policies since abolishing its military in 1948 to free up public funds for education and health. Successive governments developed innovative environmental programmes including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/environment\/2010\/oct\/25\/costa-rica-biodiversity\">levying a tax<\/a> on fuels to pay for biodiversity conservation and national park management.<\/p>\n<p>However, in recent years Costa Ricans have raised concerns over the government\u2019s leadership on environmental matters with a Chinese-backed oil refinery \u2013 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ticotimes.net\/2016\/04\/14\/costa-rica-cancels-1-2-billion-chinese-refinery-project\">cancelled<\/a> in 2016 because it lacked a satisfactory feasibility study \u2013 featuring prominently.<\/p>\n<p>So which Alvarado will better manage the China relationship and the country\u2019s environmental legacy?<\/p>\n<h2>Policy continuity<\/h2>\n<p>Above all, Costa Rica needs continuity on environmental policy, according to former president Jos\u00e9 Mar\u00eda Figueres.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The fact that climate change doesn&#8217;t feature on Alvarado Mu\u00f1oz\u2019s governmental plan is a scandal<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cOne hopes the next Costa Rican government, whichever it is, follows the path set out by many governments and maintains a coherent and progressive position with respect to the environment,\u201d Figueres, who governed from 1994-1998, told <em>Di\u00e1logo Chino<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>National Restoration Party candidate Alvarado Mu\u00f1oz\u2019s environmental policy, as laid out in a manifesto that was released just four days prior to Sunday\u2019s vote, is guided by the principle of \u2018Christian stewardship\u2019 \u2013 to protect God\u2019s creations. The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fabricioalvarado.com\/planGobierno.pdf\">document<\/a> makes no explicit reference to climate change.<\/p>\n<p>The fact that climate change doesn&#8217;t feature on Alvarado Mu\u00f1oz\u2019s governmental plan is a scandal, according to Araya.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m not optimistic about his relationship with science,&#8221; she says and adds that Alvarado Mu\u00f1oz\u2019s \u2018scandalous\u2019 public comments about gay people being sick demonstrate his lack of evidence-based thinking.<\/p>\n<p>However, Alvarado Mu\u00f1oz&#8217;s &#8216;populist&#8217; tendencies may mean he tries to appease the majority of Costa Ricans who care deeply about the environment, Araya adds.<\/p>\n<p>Alvarado Mu\u00f1oz does pledge to continue Costa Rica\u2019s advances in generating energy from renewables.<\/p>\n<div class='block--pullout-stat block--pullout-stat--float cd-shortcode--factbox'>\n                <p class='block--pullout-stat__title'>Did you know\u2026<\/p>\n                <div class='block--pullout-stat__content'>\n                    <br \/>\nIn 2017,\u00a0100% of Costa Rica's\u00a0electricity was produced by renewable sources for a period of 300 days<br \/>\n\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n<p>In 2017, under Alvarado Quesada\u2019s ruling Citizen\u2019s Action Party (PAC), <a href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/news\/world\/americas\/costa-rica-electricity-renewable-energy-300-days-2017-record-wind-hydro-solar-water-a8069111.html\">100%<\/a> of the country\u2019s electricity was produced by renewable sources for a period of 300 days. Hydropower, which can have other <a href=\"https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/2018\/03\/28\/bhutans-balancing-act\/\">negative environmental impacts<\/a> on rivers and forests, generated 78% of the total with wind and biomass accounting for 10% each. Solar generated 1%.<\/p>\n<p>Alvarado Quesada promises to make Costa Rica carbon neutral by 2021 and has a climate change adaptation plan and <a href=\"https:\/\/carlos.cr\/plandegobierno\">policies<\/a> on electric mobility, recycling and oceans. The importance of cooperating with China to advance in renewables and sustainable transport is becoming \u201cvery clear\u201d, Araya says.<\/p>\n<h2>China controversies<\/h2>\n<p>Despite scoring a number of successes in the environmental sphere since entering office in 2014, including passing a new law on zero emissions mobility and increasing marine protected areas from <a href=\"http:\/\/web.unep.org\/americalatinacaribe\/es\/costa-rica-expande-sus-mares-protegidos-e-intensifica-sus-esfuerzos-contra-la-contaminaci%C3%B3n-el-d%C3%ADa\">12% to 15%<\/a> of its seas, there have been controversies.<\/p>\n<p>The announcement in 2009 of a joint venture between state-run oil company RECOPE and the international branch of China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPCI) to build an oil refinery kicked-off a long-running saga which culminated in the project\u2019s cancellation in 2016.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>There are now more entry points for trade and investment between China and Costa Rica than when the two countries first established diplomatic ties a decade ago<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The project was financed by a US$900 million loan from China Development Bank, around 70% of the total cost. It was met with anger by many sections of Costa Rican society on the grounds it would pollute the environment and fail to reduce the cost of fuel.<\/p>\n<p>But in 2013, Costa Rica\u2019s General Comptroller declared the feasibility study for the refinery invalid given that the company carrying out the study had links to the Chinese partner.<\/p>\n<p>Araya says that there are now more entry points for trade and investment between China and Costa Rica than when the two countries first established diplomatic ties a decade ago, at which time the main \u2018hook\u2019 was the ill-fated refinery.<\/p>\n<p>The recent \u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/globalvoices.org\/2017\/11\/16\/cementazo-scandal-tarnishes-costa-rican-presidential-election\/\">cementazo<\/a>\u2019 cement scandal (the -azo suffix in Spanish denotes magnitude or controversy) highlighted irregularities in the approval of a US$30 million loan from the state-run Bank of Costa Rica to a real estate developer for the purchase of Chinese cement following a government plan to break up a longstanding duopoly in the construction sector.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSome people in government do not think big enough,\u201d Araya says, adding; \u201cthey just stick to short term decisions and I think both the refinery and the cement situation confirm that.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Citizen demands<\/h2>\n<p>Costa Rica\u2019s low-carbon future may have received little attention in this presidential campaign but that has more to do with those framing the debate than how much citizens, especially young people, care, Araya says.<\/p>\n<p>The most recent <a href=\"http:\/\/www.latinobarometro.org\/latNewsShow.jsp\">survey<\/a> by Latinobar\u00f3metro, an authoritative gauge of Latin American public opinion, revealed that 73% of Costa Ricans agreed that the fight climate change should be a priority irrespective of its impacts on economic growth.<\/p>\n<p>Somewhat unusually for a small, developing country, earlier Costa Rican governments regarded environmental protection and economic development as two sides of the same coin.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou can\u2019t have one without the other,\u201d said Figueres. He points to the country\u2019s promotion of environmental services and designation of national parks as examples of its pioneering spirit but concedes it has made more advances on land than in the ocean.<\/p>\n<p>Araya says Alvarado Quesada is a better prospect for the continued promotion of environmental and climate change issues.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf he wins, clearly there will be more space for us as activists and zero emissions advocates, to work with\u201d she says.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The renewables champion elects a new president Sunday at a pivotal
