Costa Rica ranked 2nd in the world for 'environmental sustainability'

Being that I spent a month in Costa Rica, I am always interested in learning the countries progress.
It is official that a "developing" country is 2nd in world environmental sustainability, only trailing to Switzerland. 75.9% of their energy comes from hydroelectric and 17.7% from renewables. It makes you think why can't the U.S. be in the top 2.

PURA VIDA!!!!

Damn Mosquitos

Even though its getting colder, within two minutes of sitting in my backyard I get bit by mosquitos! After killing one and looking at it closely I found out using google, its a Asian tiger mosquito. After a little research I found just why this year has been worst than many years past. Check out the links!

Welcome

Hey everyone!

The goal to Stumbling Over Science is to share thoughts, sightings, and knowledge that most people would think "whats the science behind that?". I will follow up with some useful web sources to educate the science behind it and to educate what a trusted source is. I feel this blog is targeted towards any student or person interested in learning the science and sustainability behind things they see everyday.

Enjoy!
