An anonymous reader writes: Costa Rica has achieved a clean energy milestone by using 100 per cent renewable energy for a record 75 days in a row.
The feat was achieved thanks to heavy rainfall, which powered four hydroelectric plants in the first three months of the year, the state-run Costa Rican Electricity Institute said.
No fossil fuels have been burnt to generate electricity since December 2014, in the state which is renowned for its clean energy policies.
