Resumen
Costa Rica a nivel centroamericano y el Caribe es considerado un ejemplo a seguir en cuanto a
preservar y proteger la naturaleza se habla. Es por esto, que el termino de crecimiento verde resulta
familiar, los programas, los sistemas actuales de parques nacionales y áreas protegidas, la incursión
en foros ambientales nacionales e internacionales, son apartados que recalcan el compromiso con
el medio ambiente. Así mismo, el país posee una gran historia con temas económicos, políticos y
sociales a nivel Latinoamericano, en la generación de grandes cantidades de energías limpias y
hasta un gran desarrollo ecoturístico.
De acuerdo con la Dirección de Cambio Climático (2017) el financiamiento verde “se refiere a
todos los flujos financieros cuyo efecto esperado es reducir las emisiones netas de GEI y/o
aumentar la resiliencia a los impactos de la variabilidad climática y el cambio climático
proyectado” (p.9). Este término también trata de tomar en cuenta los fondos públicos y privados,
además de los flujos internacionales, que colaboran el apoyo de los problemas que presentan las
empresas en pro de preservar el medio ambiente.
El país posee una serie de normas y regulaciones en cuanto preservar la naturaleza y controlar los
efectos negativos del clima causados por el aumento de la contaminación, además de la
implementación de estrategias proambientales, un ejemplo de estas es: Estrategia Nacional de
Cambio Climático (ENCC), el Plan de Acción de la ENCC de las Contribuciones Determinadas a
Nivel Nacional (NDC), Plan de Descarbonización 2018-2050, entre otros.
La presente investigación muestra un análisis de la efectividad que genera el Programa de
Crecimiento Verde impulsado por la Promotora Nacional de Comercio Exterior (PROCOMER),
resaltando todos los resultados sobresalientes, además de las debilidades y los apartados de mejora
que este presenta. Es por esto, que esta investigación mostrara todas las oportunidades que tiene
el sector productivo del país para alcanzar un desarrollo de primer mundo.
Finalmente, la investigación refleja resultados sobre como incide el programa de crecimiento verde
en las áreas económicas y ambientales, mostrando satisfactoriamente que este financiamiento
cambió la forma total de la funcionalidad de las empresas. El ahorro es una variable para destacar
en los resultados obtenidos, tanto en costos como energético, van de la mano con respecto a la
incidencia del programa, vemos como la mayoría de las empresas que tuvieron un beneficio en la reducción de costos así mismo en su consumo energético, esto debido a que toda mejora va
encaminada al uso racional de recursos y a formas innovadoras de crecimiento.
Costa Rica at the Central American and Caribbean level is considered an example to follow in terms of conservation and protection of the environment. This is why the term green growth is familiar, the programs, the current systems of national parks and protected areas, the incursion into national and international environmental forums, are sections that emphasize the commitment to the environment. Likewise, the country has a great history in economic, political and social matters, in the generation of large amounts of clean energy and even a great ecotourism development. According to the Climate Change Directorate (2017), green financing "refers to all financial flows whose expected effect is to reduce net GHG emissions and/or increase resilience to the impacts of climate variability and projected climate change.”” (p.9). This term also tries to take into account public and private funds, in addition to international flows, which collaborate to support the problems presented by companies in favor of preserving the environment. The country has a series of rules and regulations on climate change, in addition to the implementation of strategies, an example of which is: the National Climate Change Strategy (ENCC), the ENCC Action Plan for Contributions Determined at the National (NDC), Decarbonization Plan 2018-2050, among others. This research shows an analysis of the effectiveness generated by the green growth program promoted by the National Promoter of Foreign Trade (PROCOMER), highlighting all the outstanding results, as well as the weaknesses and areas for improvement that it presents. This is why this research will show all the opportunities that the country's productive sector has to achieve first-world development. Finally, the research reflects results on how the green growth program affects the economic and environmental areas, satisfactorily showing that this financing changed the total way of the companies' functionality. Savings is a variable to highlight in the results obtained, both in costs and energy, they go hand in hand with respect to the incidence of the program, we see how most of the companies that had a benefit in reducing costs likewise in their energy consumption, this is due to the fact that any improvement is aimed at the rational use of resources and innovative forms of growth.
