Kirchner pipeline: the construction that threatens hundred-year-old trees in Argentina
The caldén, an endemic tree species of the Pampean region, is in danger. Millions of dollars invested in a pipeline and a government in crisis face the conservation of a unique forest in the world and in clear disappearance that only protects a handful of neighbors.
This project was funded and published by Periodistas por el Planeta: “Gasoducto Kirchner: la obra del siglo amenaza árboles centenarios en Argentina”.
