~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Roberto Dobles
"Costa Rica: The Carbon Neutrality Challenge"

Costa Rica has declared that it will go carbon neutral by 2021. To meet
that challenge, energy officials from the Central American nation have
gone on a fact-finding tour of the United States, seeking out best
practices that can be incorporated at home. The Center for Latin American
Studies together with the National Resources Defense Council have helped
coordinate the delegation’s visit to Berkeley, focusing on global
strategies for carbon neutrality, methods for reducing dependence on
fossil fuels and the building of partnerships for future collaborations.
Minister Dobles will discuss his country’s efforts to mitigate carbon
emissions during this special presentation.

Roberto Dobles is the Costa Rican Minister of the Environment and Energy.

Co-sponsored by the National Resources Defense Council.

Monday, May 19, 5:00 pm
Room 554, Barrows Hall
