Bolivia: Field Diagnosis
Climate change impacts in Bolivia include rising temperatures, particularly in high-altitude zones; retreat and disappearance of mountain glaciers; erratic and intense rainfall; and increased risk of erosion and landslides. Community adaptation projects include setting up and improving gardens of the subtropical fruit cherimoya to allow for proper use of soils and to conserve scarce water. The project will also improve forest layers, adding local tree species that will serve as wind barriers, cattle forage and firewood, preventing further deforestation in the area.

Maria Pentzel ofcouse yes the forest trap most of the carbondioxide which is the cause for globewarming(temperature) and help in rainformation hence enough freshwater in the globle and they are windbreakers so reduce the strength of the wind which c an have alot of effects.

Many people doesnt care about climate change, they house too small there is no space to planting the trees,no garden where the children can play.I live in jakarta. It's very difficult to find garden or public space with open air but very ea...sy to find mall because every 5 km you can find Mall.The people still used plastik, not seperated the garbage between organic and non organic. Very high trafic jam.Even in High way, it's looks like parking area.If rain...the water will be overflow,if dry season, ther is no water....unbelieveble.Every where you can read slogan "Safe enviroment" but no action.It's a sick city.See More

Ian Bond, the head of the Greening Team at the UK Embassy in Washington, DC, talks about what the embassy has done over the last few years. Do you think these small, simple steps can have a big impact? “The main thing that the embassy has done over the last few years…is to update the heating and cooling systems [and]…using natural gas to generate electricity. That’s cutting our utility bills and our CO2 emissions by about 20%.”
