The promise of wealth from these activities is as a mirage on a desert, always on the horizon, we only need to dig deeper (or higher). But water is too important for people as to be easily convinced: a public hearing has been called by the lower camera and the people did not hesitate, more than 50.000 people have now registered to express their opinion on the matter on the 25 and 26 March. This is unprecedented for any public hearing in the country\u2019s history, but the government is now trying to limit public participation to 200 people.

Even small changes in the water supplied from glaciers can have disproportionate effects on the ecosystems that depend on it, specially in a climate change context where most glaciers are retreating. There is still a chance to avoid this bill from being modified and as citizens we have can make our voice loud and say no to mining and yes to life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; By Julieta Vigliano, illustration \u00a0by Martin Colombo Argentina has an exemplary law protecting its glaciers.
