The country, which has been pilloried by the US and Britain in the UN climate talks for demanding steep carbon emission cuts, will establish 11 new rights for nature. They include: the right to life and to exist; the right to continue vital cycles and processes free from human alteration; the right to pure water and clean air; the right to balance; the right not to be polluted; and the right to not have cellular structure modified or genetically altered.
Controversially, it will also enshrine the right of nature "to not be affected by mega-infrastructure and development projects that affect the balance of ecosystems and the local inhabitant communities".
"It makes world history. Earth is the mother of all", said Vice-President Alvaro García Linera. "It establishes a new relationship between man and nature, the harmony of which must be preserved as a guarantee of its regeneration."
The law, which is part of a complete restructuring of the Bolivian legal system following a change of constitution in 2009, has been heavily influenced by a resurgent indigenous Andean spiritual world view which places the environment and the earth deity known as the Pachamama at the centre of all life. Humans are considered equal to all other entities.
But the abstract new laws are not expected to stop industry in its tracks.

Stupid idiots.
ping y’all
Let’s see how that works out for you nitwits. Don’t come to us if you end up starving or without the basic necessities because we will probably still be working to do away with the democrat party and the impediments it has brought on us and we won’t have currency of any value.

The Final Antichrist will be a homo and a Marxist but also a Pagan in secret. These kinds of Marxists are all over the world now, waiting for their leader to appear once and for all. It was all foretold.
Dan 11:36 KJV - And the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvellous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done.
Dan 11:37 KJV - Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all.
Dan 11:38 KJV - But in his estate shall he honour the god of forces: and a god whom his fathers knew not shall he honour with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and pleasant things.
Dan 11:39 KJV - Thus shall he do in the most strong holds with a strange god, whom he shall acknowledge [and] increase with glory: and he shall cause them to rule over many, and shall divide the land for gain.
SHEESH!
Seems to me I read some articles in the past that implied this idiocy of Bolivia’s is what some action in the works is supposed to produce out of the UN sometime in the future.
On the basis of what I recall of the articles this could be a test of that forthcoming UN action.
I wouldn’t doubt it as it seems all the off the wall Leftist nonsense is coming about during this period of time there is no adult supervision.
Thanks for the ping. Ernest_at_the_Beach.
“the abstract new laws are not expected to stop industry in its tracks”
Like heck. Vague laws to make all businesses criminals that do not bow down to the state.
Just like Atlas Shrugged!
Vice-President Alvaro García Linera is obviously completely insane!
Thanks for the ping EatB!
Mother Earth wears army boots!

Screw Earth Worshippers.
Gosh, this will be as important to Bolivian tourism as their ocean beaches. ;’)
Weren’t the Nazis sorta loopy like this?
Guaranteed misery.
Didn’t their fore fathers (The Incas, who by the way self destructed as a society even before the Spanish arrived) worship Mother Earth as well? Yeah, I thought so.
JoMa
Yeah, I heard about the California bill last night. Good luck with that 30%. You can mandate flying unicorns crapping a skittle rainbow but that won’t make it so.
