Metal Toy Desert Eagle
That is supposed to happen for the human being aware of respect for their environment, about their world, respect for its history
few days ago was the Geysers keynote on national television address, was devoted to show how one and another was blamed, but never someone took a real risk. The Geysers for national teve seemed to be the new grace, something we have to talk, something must be shown. But recently the leak that occurred in the tatio arrest was achieved. After that time, the issue did not come out in the official press ceased to be subject to political candidates and turned to the grassroots, the people, who have always fought for the Geysers.
After checks on the flight, it became a subject that many thought was illogical, almost stupid and senseless "the company will continue speaking the geysers?, Which one hopes is an emphatic no from the authorities, those Environmentalists believe that profited from Express, but it may seem incredible, the exploitation of tatio is not a closed issue yet, you must first do an environmental impact study and if these are negative, I mean no harm, then you can continue the work
Again, we need happens to react, to change the whims of ambition and individualistic mentality that if the company owns. Was not enough the leak? Was not it enough to see the damage to the flora and fauna, it is not enough to know that a number of llamas, alpacas left their natural habitat because the noise of the plume and the temperature hit full pace of life they lead.
Apparently none of this is enough if we consider that not long ago, the geysers of Puchuldiza were damaged, with the same energy to find, to obtain water resources and ultimately these geysers are gone, now there is a system artificial fumarole launches for the European tourists will not feel cheated and The naive in this country think that Chile is concerned with the environment.
Puchuldiza On the case of the newspaper La Estrella de Iquique in 2006 published "Disturbance of water balance caused by the drilling carried out in dried Puchuldiza geysers of this natural attraction is now artificial.
Wells with chemicals that are hidden underground or simply left to the view of tourists who come to the geysers of Puchuldiza is the complaint of a group of tour operators in the region. If we add this mining surveys are conducted without any environmental consciousness, the result obtained is the suppression of this natural attraction.
Perforations that were improperly closed are a danger to the visitors of this area, mostly Europeans, who must see the contrast between landscape trucks, chemical baths and open wells, as well as workers in the middle of the Andes. "
Like in the case of Tatio anyone cares what happened to the indigenous people, nobody cares what happened to the flora and fauna, but unlike the previous case, the Geysers is the same condition which destroys the North geothermal company, is composed by ENEL, an Italian company, ENAP and Codelco.
At that time, the newspaper made an interesting point final report and we can see that in environmental policy chile, not advance
"For Antonio Mamani, the biggest problem is the extraction and exploitation of water by mining companies:" Water is increasingly demanded by TNCs that have no respect for our worldview. The legislation allows applying water as well. That logic, our communities do not understand. Water has always been occupied by the communities. Extract minerals from our territories with the promise of work and development, but leaving only pollution and drought. In Puchuldiza near Colchane, a mining affected the geysers and continue trying to build wells. What is development if we are becoming poorer? It is true that there are policies and some areas, subsidies and resources. But it is to 'integrate' or produce a 'development with identity', as they say. That is not our development and our worldview. "Education? There is talk of 'multiculturalism', but there is no exchange between the two cultures in schools or universities. "
"several threats against them. Between 1992 and 1998, the government authorized the construction of wells highland seeking "he said to supply potable water demand of Arica. The following year, drilled wells, which draw water to four thousand meters high in the Valley of Lluta. In 2000 the authorities reformulated its discourse saying "well serve to revitalize farming Azapa Valley." Large employers and Arica Azapa pushing for more water. Would extract 300 liters per second in the seven wells constructed. But served to deliver the application to mining operations, damaging watersheds and bring more drought and wetland species and wetlands. In 2004, Aymara and environmental organizations launched a protest campaign to challenge the exploitation of the wells and approval of environmental impact assessment endorsed by Corema. In March 2005, finally, the project was rejected, but is feared to be replaced. "
is assumed that human beings learn from their history or maybe that will be the eternal argument to justify wars, death, dictatorship, environmental damage, the total destruction of the planet.
I really hope that the geysers of tatio not join the long list of cases of destruction of this country and at the same time I hope that the curiosity of the official national press serve to raise a little awareness, to inquire more about this happening in this world to look a little beyond our belly and not forgetting our little native who has recently been marginalized, destroyed, humiliated.
not forget that we are thinking beings, capable of changing the world we live in, you can not expect anything from anyone, the people themselves must act, do not wait for all of Chile is dry at the whim of some

Senate seeks to The Geysers is natural monument
/ Lanacion.cl
Ana Lya Uriarte
said it was "extremely legitimate and appropriate" to ask The geyser of The Geysers have this nomination, while early adoption called the creation of the Ministry of Environment.
A draft agreement to ask the President to declare as a Natural Monument and Nature Sanctuary in the geysers of The Geysers, senators had different sectors led by José Antonio Gómez (PRSD), as part of a special session of the Senate discuss the environmental damage caused by the work of prospecting Northern Geothermal Company (EGN).
The Environment Committee will be responsible for agreeing the text of the draft agreement that already found a good acceptance among government representatives.
"Of course you are going to pay attention to the draft agreement, because this is a place that from an environmental point of view and tourism is of great significance, therefore looks remarkably legitimate and appropriate to the approach, "said Environment Minister Ana Lya Uriarte.
The initiative should also seek the views of senators in the sense that the incident should not call into question the diversification of energy mix, particularly in the development of geothermal energy.
Uriarte pointed to the need to pass in Congress the law creating the Ministry of the Environment, noting that senators should be "consistent", calling that none of those who criticized the situation arising today in The Geysers, many of them pointing to the lack of control, rejected the initiative.
"The bill creates the Ministry states that the bills when they enter the system development of environmental impact must explain how that is compatible with other activities such as tourism," he said.
The Minister referred in this way to the initiative that created the Ministry, the Department of Environmental Assessment and Environmental Superintendent, pending the Commission's specialized and received more than 1,300 signs, although provides a new regulatory framework .

Toddler Who's Thirsty
Enough so brazenly and continue fighting for
Tatio
Today October 2 it seems that the geyser Geysers began to be subject to national level, when the disaster is already in sight of all, it is clear that not taking into account the subject would be politically incorrect, would leave a bad image to Chile, one year of the bicentennial.
In September, while some chanted and danced a lively chile cueca, believing that it is being patriotic or Chilean, others are really worried about the country, its history and its beautiful landscapes that characterize this narrow strip of land at the end of the world.
But the Geysers, is a subject that comes from 2001, people outraged community atacameños and other years have been fighting against intervention Geyser Geysers, because it was clear that the intervention of the geothermal company would cause irreparable harm and probably huge, but at that time, politicians were not interested, it's more, the current government, which now talks about punishing the company which speaks of respect for the environment, is the same that gave all the right companies to participate, regardless of the views of indigenous peoples, going to bring their culture, their history, their beliefs. But today, all we care for the planet, all now criticize the company and is not my intention to defend the company, but if Chile would deign to have a decent legislation in the environmental field, if Chile does not sell its natural resources easily as it does today, then we would have far fewer environmental disasters to tell.
The latest images, latest news from the official press or system, of which one should never expect too much, show presidential candidate Eduardo Frei impacted by environmental damage, please this is a larger scale chutzpah! Lack
than a creek walk Mehuín and is stunned by the situation that exists in the vicinity because of Celco valdivia, sponsored enterprise.
I just think that you can not be so bold, so wrong and so dirty, the game of politics is clearly not clean, but at least it asks for a little respect, perhaps Mr. Frei believe that with a visit to the geyser Geysers and speak a couple of things about the environment one will buy cheap speech.
just need to get to the place Piñera, giving away televisions and embracing the indigenous peoples, being the entrepreneur that the server gives audience never in his life has been concerned or by the indigenous and environmental conflicts. Or maybe not him, who with any social problem only proposes more repression and more heavy-handed police.
The problem in the Geysers geyser comes from a long time, and of course, today they are the same figures as Mr. Tomic saying how terrible the situation, being that until recently, indigenous representatives said they opposed the country's progress. It seems that this person never understood the difference between progress and growth, and in this case, the only growth that could exist was that of the checkbooks of these companies and the state
I hope and believe that many also expect the same, that this disaster horrible and caused by human hands, serve to stop the interventions in the Geysers, a precedent for the future in other environmental cases that appear safe and used to raise awareness, which is most important at this time. Next time, hopefully not have to go to destruction, to a disaster like the flight of 60 meters in the geothermal field to the environment walks to be a national issue.
Finally:
"This can not continue happening. Here is given an authorization by the Corema to do research but has failed the resolution of environmental qualification, so clearly these projects do not comply with the law simply can not be done because this is a resource of the country is a tourist resort in the region, is a good of humanity we must not miss "Frei ruled

Senator Navarro calls "that
ecocide MUST END IN TATIO DEFINITELY "
warns MP "Northern Geothermal must leave or face the consequences"
As an "eco-cide" Senator Alejandro Navarro called the a mere 60 plume escaping rampant in the geysers of Geysers, which was subject to inspection by ground with Liliana Mamani
Navarro showed a "gross negligence" by Northern Geothermal, "so we will ask
After meeting with the President of the community of Anza Caspana Don Gilberto and President Pascual Yufla Toconce community, and review the fumarole field, Navarro accused "the attempt to delegitimize the communities where the conflict is with Northern Geothermal Company, the real responsible for this eco - cide."
Then, Senator traveled to San Pedro de Atamaca, place where met with Ana Maria Baron, former mayor and members of the House
Navarro called the company to "take responsibility for the facts and not to raise dust so you do not see the disaster that occurs in the Geysers. The company has received 11 fines for various infractions, such as drawing water from marshes and wetlands without legal formalities, works, without naming an independent environmental auditor and after not keep track of tanks of water that sustain it, not surrender to the SAG presence of llaretas areas, mitigation plans to violate the condition of flora and fauna, etc.. "
The legislator said that" we are not against innocent pigeons. I think not enough that the company is replaced by a more accountable. The Geysers National Park should be no activities should be done there except tourism to continue contemplating the beauty of
Finally Navarro met in the afternoon with farmers and indigenous associations of Calama, at which agreed to support "the creation of a Regional Development Plan different to the current, which delivers water rights and geothermal energy to piece, without effective controls, to the detriment of communities and tourism.
