Abstract

Sport hunting is a dangerous phenomenon for ecological damage. The first country to ban sport hunting in Central America was Costa Rica. Its only sports hunting, which was done for fun, that was not permitted, but was for local people whose livelihood depended on it were allowed to fish. This is their social justice. This country also spread its forest cover to an area that could amount to a larger extent, say doubling in over 25 years. This is how they could show their concern to the environment and ecology, striking a balance. They are likely to reach their goal of carbon-neutral by 2050. This is how they are future centric and could decrease the impact of green-house effect and thus climate change issue. The government and people could get their credit for investing in sustainable and renewable energy sources like wind and solar power to get their electricity. This makes the country largely carbon neutral. This is what is the impact of their innovative plans for sustainability, while they use socio-economic and environment model [SEE Model] to reach the goal of sustainable development goals, designed by the United Nations. The innovation of communities and countries need to be based not on exploitation of people, planet and prosperity but on the sustainability of them to win over the impacts of climate change and give a better world for the children to live in.
