Reconquista hosts 2nd Provincial Integral Environmental Education Forum
The 2nd Provincial Integral Environmental Education Forum was held for the first time in northern Santa Fe at the Profesorado N.º 4 «Ángel Cárcano» in Reconquista. The event brought together educational institutions, organizations, and territorial leaders to exchange experiences regarding environmental issues and land stewardship.
During the forum, Juan Pablo Robledo, the environmental official for northern Santa Fe, addressed the recent fish mortality reported in the Aguilar stream. He noted that rising river levels and flooding may have introduced organic matter into the water, potentially depleting dissolved oxygen levels. The Ministry of Environment has collected water samples, with laboratory results for chemical oxygen demand expected early next week.
Additionally, the forum touched upon the necessity of ensuring consultation with indigenous peoples regarding territorial decisions. Robledo also announced the upcoming presentation of the Santa Fe Climate Change Response Plan, which aims toward a 2030 horizon.
