How the climate change has affected Bolivia

Bolivia’s foreign minister has blamed the recent floods on climate change, ABC News reported this week.

Bolivia is probably a country that cannot do that much about the climate change. The largest CO2 producers in the countries are probably the cars – but even these rarely travel any long distances.

Now they are looking to the rest of the World to help them – is the el niño/la niña condition a result of climate change? Do we all now have a moral responsibility to help countries affected?

I think we should be looking at two different things – help for situations like this, and long-term action.
