A little about water in Peru |
---|
Peru, a country considered among the seven most biodiverse in the world, at the same time one that has a higher rate of deforestation with approximately 150 000 hectares per year.
In the SIERRA also find different types of ecosystems but the weather is cold and can be up to 6780 meters above sea level approximately. One of the most characteristic species of this area is the Puya Raimondi, belonging to the family of bromeliads. It can live up to 100 years and measure up to 12 meters high, it blooms only once in your life and live more than 3000 meters. This species is endangered because it is threatened by the locals who use it as fuel, food for their animals and building materials.
The COSTA borders the Pacific Ocean and is the region that has the largest number of people with 53% of the Peruvian population, while being less territory region. On the COSTA is the capital of Peru, Lima that is the second largest desert city after Cairo. Part of the Pacific Coast would be a desert if not for the water flowing from the Andes, because Peru has the largest number of the world's tropical glaciers.
Although the management still has some deficits, in Peru are taking place many programs, activities and campaigns for getting more people access to water and that people who already have it, learn to take care of, is also during this month, hundreds of people in Peru participated in all activities of the world Water Day, which also in Peru was declared ?he month of the water? I hope inform you about these activities the next time.
