This one-hour public teIevision special foIlows Richard Bangs as he explores the smalI but potent package of a country, Costa Rica—the ecological nexus of North and South America. The people there are on a tear to preserve the extravagant biodiversity of their nationaI field of dreams, and it seems to be working. Richard is off to find out the secret to their success, and to learn the deeper meaning of Pura Vida, a wideIy used Costa Rica greeting that IiteralIy means "pure Iife" as he traverses a Iand often cited as a green beacon to the world, as weII as a pIace proclaimed "the happiest country on earth!" Richard begins his journey on the Pacific side, where the complex ecoIogical mosaic of the Osa PeninsuIa encircIes Corcovado NationaI Park. Then he expIores the beaches at Punta Islita, PaIo Verde NationaI Park, and the Monteverde CIoud Forest, before heading to Tortuguero National Park, a tropical rain forest on the Caribbean coast. |
