Un nuevo estudio estima que hasta el 30 por ciento de la deforestaci\u00f3n total en tres pa\u00edses centroamericanos es causada por el tr\u00e1fico de coca\u00edna. Un idicador de la relaci\u00f3n entre el deterioro ambiental y el negocio de la droga en Latinoam\u00e9rica.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

El estudio, publicado<\/a> en la revista Environmental Research Letters, afirma que el narcotr\u00e1fico puede representar del 15 al 30 por ciento de la deforestaci\u00f3n en Honduras, Guatemala y Nicaragua.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Al contrario de los pa\u00edses productores de drogas en Suram\u00e9rica, donde suelen talarse los bosques para cultivar coca, los narcotraficantes centroamericanos suelen convertir los bosques en pastizales para lavar dinero, declara el estudio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cA medida que los estupefacientes viajan hacia el norte, su valor aumenta y los traficantes y carteles buscan formas de trasladar ese dinero a la econom\u00eda legal\u201d, cont\u00f3 a The Guardian<\/a> el autor principal del informe, Steven Sesnie. \u201cComprar bosques y convertirlos en tierra para labores agr\u00edcolas es una de las principales formas en que hacen esto\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sesnie se\u00f1al\u00f3 que a lo largo de la \u00faltima d\u00e9cada se deforestaron millones de acres siguiendo ese m\u00e9todo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Los autores usaron un \u201can\u00e1lisis espacio-temporal\u201d para establecer el v\u00ednculo entre los flujos de coca\u00edna y la p\u00e9rdida de bosques en un total de seis pa\u00edses centroamericanos: Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica y Panam\u00e1. Hallaron la conexi\u00f3n m\u00e1s fuerte entre el narcotr\u00e1fico y \u201cp\u00e9rdida forestal an\u00f3mala\u201d en Honduras y Nicaragua, y la m\u00e1s d\u00e9bil, en Guatemala y Panam\u00e1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

El estudio representa el primer an\u00e1lisis a gran escala de c\u00f3mo el narcotr\u00e1fico, en oposici\u00f3n al cultivo de drogas, tiene un impacto en la deforestaci\u00f3n, seg\u00fan los autores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An\u00e1lisis de InSight Crime<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

El estudio ofrece un an\u00e1lisis cuantitativo poco com\u00fan de c\u00f3mo el narcotr\u00e1fico es causante directo del da\u00f1o ambiental en Latinoam\u00e9rica. Un estudio acad\u00e9mico, publicado en 2014, hall\u00f3 que el narcotr\u00e1fico desempe\u00f1a un rol importante<\/a> en la deforestaci\u00f3n en Centroam\u00e9rica. Los autores del estudio de 2014 hallaron que los narcotraficantes despejaban el terreno para construir carreteras y pistas de aterrizaje clandestinas, adem\u00e1s del lavado de dinero.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pero la relaci\u00f3n entre el crimen organizado y la deforestaci\u00f3n no es uniforme a lo largo de la regi\u00f3n. La p\u00e9rdida forestal se ha asociado al cultivo de coca<\/a> en Colombia, mayor productor mundial de coca\u00edna. En Brasil, en contraste, las organizaciones criminales talan y queman selva en el Amazonas<\/a> para vender la tierra a criadores de ganado y agroindustrias. La tala ilegal tambi\u00e9n es una gran industria en Brasil, hasta con 80 por ciento<\/a> de la industria maderera del pa\u00eds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

VEA TAMBI\u00c9N:<\/span><\/strong> Cobertura sobre ecotr\u00e1fico<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

La d\u00e9bil vigilancia del Estado y las enormes ganancias que los grupos criminales pueden obtener de la explotaci\u00f3n de los recursos naturales son los hilos comunes que se mueven en todos estos casos. Hace poco Brasil suaviz\u00f3 varias leyes relativas a la conservaci\u00f3n forestal<\/a>, lo que probablemente puede facilitar que los grupos criminales saqueen el Amazonas con impunidad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
