The Government removed almost the entire environmental chapter from the Omnibus Law. But the changes to the glacier law remained and there is an alert for the lack of protection of nature.
Strong pressure from the "mining" provinces in favor of the modification. Local environmentalism agrees with what it sees behind everything: the hand of companies like Barrick Gold, installed in San Juan, or the firms that operate and explore for the coveted lithium of Catamarca. The law still in force establishes that glaciers and the periglacial environment are public goods that must be preserved.
