The problem of Colombia is the atmosphere,

since Bogotá and Medellin are one of the

cities with the greatest problems of
atmospheric pollution, which is why a high
amount of pollutants from industry and
transport condense in them, and also other
problem is water contamination, since half of
the country's departments register
contaminated waters that are also used for
human consumption, therefore there are very
poor basic sanitation conditions.
In addition, in Colombia there is a high
deforestation, and is reflected in the loss of
178,597 hectares of forest, which increases
thanks to extensive livestock, crops for illicit
use, development of the road infrastructure,
extraction of minerals and natural resources
and forest fires.
Similarly, illegal mining is important to
mention, since this is one of the main
environmental threats that Colombia faces,
as a result of open-pit gold mining, and this
has affected more than 78,939 hectares by
criminal networks, and causes 46% of the
ecological damage in the Choco forest.

Colombia has legislation that has been

extensively developed and complemented in
the last three decades. The first laws of
environmental defense were promulgated by
the National Institute of Natural Resources
(Inderena), through the Code of Renewable
Natural Resources and Environmental
Protection (Decree Law 2811 of 1974). Then
in 1991, as a result of the new political
constitution, environmental protection was
restructured, raising it to the category of
“collective right” and establishing
conservation mechanisms for its custody that
involve both the State and the general public,
especially the communities. with tradition in
caring for nature, such as indigenous and
Afro-descendant women.

The Ministry of the Environment and the

Humboldt Institute have made significant
progress in the delimitation of the páramos,
and the government's promise is that it will
complete this task before completing its
mandate.

The Ministry of Environment also increased

its budget for years by 60% compared to
July 2018, from 2019 to a total of $ 375
billion pesos, fulfilling the purposes of
sustainable development is a goal that
requires the efforts of different actors ,
including private companies.

First of all, the people who live from

livestock, mining and national industry that
affect the environment, the government, and
citizens.

The economy, put this is involved since it is

one of the pillars in this country, and
secondly the environmental resources that
are being undermined.
My country will shape the debate in order to
expose the real situation of the country in the
face of climate problems, to later make a
direct criticism of the situation of the
government and the environment, in terms of
the omission that it makes, in addition to the
lack of culture that exists in the country,
since the environment is seized, to enhance an
economic interest.

I hope that the other countries support these

proposals, since it is for the benefit of all to
take care of the lungs of the world, the
Amazon and other parts that require it.
Yes, the ideam has indicators of water use,
water regulation, water vulnerability index,
water quality index, index of potential
alteration of water quality, water demand,
aridity index.
Similarly, it has indicators that specify the
proportion of the area covered by natural
forest, change in the area covered by natural
forest, annual deforestation rate, variation in
the area of vegetation cover affected by fires,
variation in the volume of confiscated wood,
variation volume of wood granted for use.
And we also find indicators on the
monitoring of ecosystems, National Net GHG
Emissions and National Net GHG Emissions
per capita.
