- Abstract: This paper studies the visibility, environmental sustainability practices, and public recognition of Costa Rican organizations participating in the Carbon Neutrality (cn) Program. Through a review of Costa Rican online newspapers, we conclude that the three main actions performed by cn firms are the offsetting of carbon emissions, the replacement of polluting inputs by cleaner substitutes, and employees' training. The main benefits perceived by these firms include reducing production costs, improving corporate image, and achieving market differentiation. In addition, by using non-parametric statistic procedures, we conclude that "highly cited organizations" tend to achieve the cn certification earlier and have a larger number of environmental certifications than "scarcely cited organizations." By analyzing newspaper coverage data in conjunction with a consumer recognition survey, we determined that "recognized organizations" tend to be the oldest, the largest, and the most cited in the press. In addition, "recognized entities" also tend to obtain the cn certification sooner than unrecognized entities, which means that there is a reward in terms of public recognition for companies that took the risk of being innovative in reducing their carbon footprint.

- Abstract: este artículo analiza la visibilidad, las prácticas de sostenibilidad ambiental y el reconocimiento público de las organizaciones que participan en el Programa País Carbono Neutralidad (CN) del Gobierno de Costa Rica. Mediante una revisión de periódicos digitales locales, se concluye que las tres principales acciones de las empresas carbono neutro son la compensación de emisiones de carbono, la sustitución de insumos contaminantes por productos más limpios y la capacitación de sus colaboradores. Los principales beneficios percibidos por estas empresas incluyen una reducción en sus costos de producción, una mejor imagen corporativa y su diferenciación en el mercado. Adicionalmente, al aplicar procedimientos estadísticos no paramétricos, concluimos que las "organizaciones altamente citadas" tienden a lograr la certificación de cn de manera temprana y cuentan con un mayor número de certificaciones ambientales que las "organizaciones escasamente citadas". El análisis de información disponible en medios escritos digitales, junto con una encuesta de reconocimiento por parte del consumidor, permite determinar que las "organizaciones reconocidas" tienden a ser las más antiguas, de mayor tamaño y las más citadas en la prensa. Así mismo, las "entidades reconocidas" también suelen obtener la certificación de cn antes que aquellas no reconocidas, lo que significa que existe una recompensa en términos de reconocimiento público para las organizaciones que se han aventurado a incorporar prácticas innovadoras para la reducción de su huella de carbono.
