Police uncovered some 67kg (147lbs) of cocaine hidden in hollowed-out pineapples at a Madrid market. Up to a kilo (2.2lbs) of cocaine was packed into individual cylinders, coated in wax and encased in the pineapples, reportedly in Costa Rica, before arriving for distribution in the Spanish capital.
Costa Rica's Monteverde "cloud forest' may soon no longer be worthy of the name – climate change means there are increasingly fewer clouds, drying out the forest and threatening its flora and fauna.

Around 40 volunteers gather on Guacalillo Beach, on the Pacific coast of Costa Rica, to clean its shores.

In 2021, the country generated over 1.6 million tonnes of municipal waste according to the Organisation For Economic Co-operation And Development (OECD).
