Bolivia: water people of Andes face extinction

http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2009/apr/24/andes-tribe-threat-bolivia-climate-change

• The Uru Chipaya, a Bolivian tribe, are warning that they face extinction through climate change
• The people consider them “water peoples” and soon, they will have to live in the city like regular people
• Bolivia has a shortage of all natural resources, they barely get any water throughout the whole country
• The Uru Chipaya culture is almost completely lost because of this

Reflection:

This article made me a little sad when I read it. It is very unfortunate how the people in Bolivia are on the verge of extinction. This article made me realize how fortunate I am to have the resources I need to lead a long life. I would recommend this article to anyone that is interested in saving other countries and helping other people around the world.
