Climate Change News: Argentina protects its glaciers by law
Argentina enacted a new law that protects the country's glaciers, in a global context where climate change
threatens the large bodies of ice and there are risks of different polluting activities.
The law, enacted on September 30, aims to preserve the glaciers as "strategic reserves of water for human consumption, for agriculture and as suppliers of water to recharge basins, for the protection of biodiversity ; as a source of scientific and tourist attraction."
