Combatting climate change without resources: The 2027 Economic Package allocates 16 times more money to trains than to the environment
World1 source1 country🔦 Under-reported26m ago
The 2027 Economic Package allocates 33.95% of its federal budget tagged for climate change toward railway infrastructure, resulting in funding that is 16 times greater than the combined resources designated for forest protection and natural areas. This significant budget disparity highlights a strong prioritization of rail projects over direct environmental conservation efforts.
Simultaneously, regional efforts to address climate vulnerabilities continue through institutional partnerships. The Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources (MARN) of El Salvador and the Central American Bank for Economic Integration (BCIE) signed an agreement to activate a regional program focused on ecosystem-based climate change adaptation.
