Forests are essential for climate regulation, to protect the soil and absorb the rainwater. In the last years, forests of north Argentina, Paraguay and Brazil suffer from an aggressive deforestation. Native vegetation is devastated in favor of intensive monoculture of soybeans. It causes the soil to lose its absorption capacity and turns rocky. The increase in rains due to climate change in combination with other factors, cause year-over-year that Uruguay River grows, affecting regional economies and daily activities with floods over all the coastal towns and cities.
