Die Umweltorganisation Fundación Amigos de la Naturaleza gibt an, dass die Feuer zwischen Januar und September eine Fläche von 23.000 Quadratkilometern Wald und Weideflächen vernichtet haben. Durch extreme Dürre konnten einzelne Feuer zu Großbränden verschmelzen. Die bolivianische Regierung hat den nationalen Notstand ausgerufen.

Mehr zum Thema Waldbrände gibt es in der 5. KNICKER-Ausgabe. Die ist bei uns im Shop erhältlich.

That’s why the interview will now be published as completely anonymized text. The photos were sent by the interviewee. Her name and hometown has been verified by KATAPULT.
