How well do the mass media report on issues of climate change?
Well... it depends. For instance, now there is medium coverage around the activities of the Ministry of Environment. Now that I think of it, it's been since the Ministry was reated that more attention was granted to environmental issues. For example, yesterday the minister spoke at a national radio, named RPP, about Peru's fight agains transgenetic food. He claimed that we've had several different types of crops and, for centurys we have tamed several crops such as potatos, sweet potato and corn. We should protect our natural heritage and our consumption proccess through buying peruvian growth crops.
There is a certain trend, perhaps it will be more than a trend (hope so!), that consists in protecting peruvian goods and heritage, such as the culinary, crops, dance, culture, enterprises... And in this point the proclaim to protect our environment has echo in media this days. Just check out this link:
