Costa Rica, a country approximately the same size as the state of West Virginia, is home to roughly four percent of the known species in the world. Although this small nation occupies only about 0.03 percent of the planet’s surface, it is considered to be one of 20 countries with the greatest biodiversity.
Also discussing this fascinating country will be Gustavo Diaz, coordinator of Intern Programs for Sunnyside Farms and Juan Pinto, an intern at Sunnyside Farms, who will speak about the history, culture, and politics of Costa Rica.
