Documentary “Yasuní, el Buen vivir” and talk with Magdalena Szkwarek, at Can Trona

On Saturday 10/23 at Can Trona I participated in the presentation of Arturo Hortas's 2012 film on the Yasuni ITT project in Ecuador. After the film I commented the film and introduced the theme of nature preservation in Ecuador, within the framework of the National Plan for Good Living introduced under the government of Rafael Correa Delgado. Together with the participants, we talked about the 2007 innovative proposal of the Ecuadorian government, that was to refrain from exploiting oil reserves in exchange for international community’s financial contribution. We discussed the reasons for the failure of the initiative, and we also analyzed how potentially this innovative approach could be implemented in order to curb the consequences of climate change.
