Proponen aumentar penas por desmontes y promover la reforestacion
El diputado provincial Juan Jose Bergia presento un proyecto de ley con el objetivo de aumentar las sanciones por desmonte ilegal y establecer un regimen efectivo de restauracion de bosques nativos.
La iniciativa busca
fortalecer la proteccion de nuestros recursos forestales y garantizar la
recuperacion de areas afectadas por practicas ilegales. Las multas que propone
van cuatro hasta diez veces el valor base vigente por cada hectarea de superficie
boscosa afectada.
Tambien busca incrementar las sanciones por
actividades silvopastoriles sin permiso, aplicando sanciones similares a las
del desmonte sin permiso y agravar las multas por desmonte en lo que se conoce
como zona Amarilla y quema de productos forestales.
En la misma mirada, insta a incrementar las
sanciones por desmontar en predios fiscales y areas de conservacion de clase II
,amarillo y clase I ,rojo. El aumento seria en fijar hasta en diez veces el
valor base vigente por hectarea afectada en casos de uso de cadenas para
desmonte sin permiso las acciones al margen de la ley.
Finalmente, obliga a los responsables de
desmontes ilegales de presentar y ejecutar un "plan de restauracion de los
bosques nativos", con monitoreo por parte de la Direccion de Bosques.
Bergia subraya que las sanciones actuales son insuficientes y no disuaden
efectivamente a quienes cometen infracciones.
Ademas, la restauracion de
los bosques afectados ha sido negligenciada, lo que agrava la degradacion
ambiental. Este proyecto busca no solo aumentar las multas, sino tambien
implementar un regimen efectivo de reforestacion. "Es fundamental que
adoptemos medidas mas severas y efectivas para proteger nuestros bosques y
garantizar su restauracion", afirmo.

Unusual finding: a pine forest in excellent condition emerges after 6,000 years buried under the ice
In the world there are millions of forests. Some are close to urban centers, others in remote and inaccessible places, but they all fulfill a key role: maintain the balance of the planet. They are literally the lung of the earth. When talking about a new forest, the first thing that comes to mind is usually reforestation, a recent plantation or the recovery of an area razed by fire. But this discovery is on another way. It is not a forest sown recently. It is an old forest, which was there for thousands of years, buried under the ice. And now, with the thaw caused by global warming, he has emerged again.
