On February 21st, I wrote in my entry, "The Ticos, Their Trees, and Climate Change" about Costa Rica and the avoided deforestation activities taking place there. On September 19th, I visited Costa Rica for what was an exciting culmination of work with the Salt Lake City nonprofit Pax Natura ("Peace With Nature") to sell carbon credits derived from avoided deforestation activities in Costa Rica.
