'You've got the grass; you put a cow in it, and Bob's your uncle': the ranchers trying to halt the devastation caused by Bolivia's cattle farms.
This year, wildfires driven by ranching burned an area of Bolivian forest larger than Portugal - yet beef is booming. Two sets of pioneers aim to make the industry more sustainable.
At Alta Vista, a ranch in Concepcion, Bolivia, workers have been fending off fires for weeks. That was in September, midway through Bolivia's worst fire season on record, for which ranching and industrial agriculture are the main culprits. Alta Vista is one of a few ranches in Bolivia on a mission to make the business more sustainable.
On the road to the Alta Vista ranch, fields were scattered with the bones of dead cattle after an exceptional drought. Cattle production adapting in Bolivia.

'We empower ourselves': the women cleaning up Bolivia’s Lake Uru Uru
Once clean enough to drink, the Andean lake was poisoned by mining pollution and urban waste. But now Indigenous women are using giant reeds to revive the vital ecosystem.
Fed up with the ever-increasing pollution, the sisters Tatiana and Dayana Blanco and other young women formed the Uru Uru Team in 2019.
The first step was to clean the water. Their forebears used totora and so they decided to do the same. As well as being used to build floating platforms and houses, totora is important for treating sewage and mining wastewater as it traps minerals in its roots, leaves and stems.
Dayana and Tatiana Blanco members of the Team Uru Uru - a group of young indigenous women who came together to clean up Lago Uru Uru [Lake Uru Uru], Bolivia. Mining and plastic waste is dumped there. The waters are contaminated but the women create rafts out of plastic waste and plant totoro on them to clean the water.

'I do an illegal job, stealing': the women forced to scavenge in Bolivia's tin mines
Some work underground, others pick over tailings; all are running huge risks. But in the town of Huanani, the mines are the only way to support a family.
A growing number of women in Bolivia have resorted to mining on an informal basis to provide for their families. Some are widows whose husbands died in mining accidents or of related health problems; some are single mothers; others are wives of men who are alcoholics and subject them to domestic abuse. Some women bring their children with them to work to make more money.
Women who cannot find work often resort to scavenging minerals discarded by miners.

Power to the people? Bolivia's hunt for gas targets national parks - and divides communities
Fossil fuel exports were meant to fund a revolutionary leftist agenda. But the stateÕs move to drill in Tariquia reserve has led to bitter conflict and diminishing returns.
Remoteness helped preserve Tariquia. But this protected area is now the frontline for BoliviaÕs extractive activities, as the leftist government of Luis Arce scours the country for gas reserves that could keep its fossil-fuel model of development running.
