It is not very usual for me to report something that is not sustainable development, but this time I have to do it. On Saturday night, in the city of mocoa located in the department of Putumayo, which is in the Amazon region that has Colombia, there was an overflow of three rivers, which buried the city in mud and until now there are The environmental authorities of the sector had long been aware that it was a latent threat and now we are facing the growing phenomenon of the GIRL adding the variableness and the exponential increase of this in the climatic change .... joining the deforestation in great Esacala in the border of the rivers, we had this result. Now is not time to blame, for now as parents we are doing what can be moderately but with this I want to think to reflect that only when something happens the human capacity does not react to the possible threat? The way of life of the city was of exploitation of resources, it was a city within a jungle, and even so with the protection of this success what happened. I would like to be told that they sincerely think of our rhythm of action as a species, a balance of what they see in the projections for our future. In a subsequent report I will tell you about a popular action, about the beto that a population put to the mining on a large scale. I look forward to your comments, thanks

Daniel, thank you for your report. I am sorry to hear the news of the overflow. However, I believe this case could be a trigger that invokes appropriate measures by the government. I wish to hear any further news.
