The world conference on climate convened in Cochabamba was largely ignored by the mainstream media.  So it was welcome to see a report in The Nation.  But Bolivia has miles to go before the nation can be regarded a pace-setter on climate policy.  Attached in my letter (not published) about the annual chaqueo and the neglect of solar energy.
