Do'in Costa Rica is rarely at a loss for words, but really, I got nothing to say. This just saddens me. I won't print the entire article, but this pretty much says it all:
In Costa Rica about 96.5 percent of waste water IS discharged into rivers and oceans without any treatment, UN independent advisor and expert on water and human rights Catarina De Alburquerque said.
The BLATANT hypocrisy in regards to how Costa Rica markets itself (very successfully, I might add) vs. the actual EVIDENCE of the CONTRARY speaks for itself.... and truly saddens me. So much so in fact, I just can't bring myself to write on it any further. Plus, I've written about this 'shit' (pun intended) in a couple of my past posts: Manuel Antonio: Full of SHIT and Looking Both Ways.
I'm sorry, I just got nothing to say.

ReplyDeleteit's such a shame, but it's the gov't's fault if you ask me.

well, as sad is it may be, I'm still a BIG supporter of Costa Rica. ALL countries have their problems and CR is no exception, but it really is a beautiful country........SO worth exploring.
