There's a diverse group of problems and solutions. For instance, we can see a group of news about environmental problems in Perú. One of the most shocking right now is the logging of several trees in one district in Lima, without the consent of the neighbours. These trees were very old and part of the community history, but now they have been taken out so the city council expands a nearby highway.

 

b) On the side of solutions, we can read osme efforts from different entities to insert renewable technologies in our country, for instance, eolic tech. In places such as the sea or dessertic areas, wind are stronger than ever and with this you can both suplement villages/ communities as well as factories or power companies.

 

c) the priority variates according to the media used. For instance, there are some specialized environmental journals where you can read all of this, but in broad every-day media environment is not the first issue to deal with.

 

d) LIMA IS ONE OF THE MOST POLLUTED CITIES IN THE REGION

 

e) Climate change: die now or live trying it out.
