The Bolivian government took advantage of a UN dialogue in New York
last month to continue its attack on geoengineering, declaring

"It is time to stop and reaffirm the precautionary principle in the
face of geo-engineering and all artificial manipulation of the
climate. All new technologies should be evaluated to gauge their
environmental, social and economic impacts. The answer for the future
lies not in scientific inventions but in our capacity to listen to
nature."

dialogue-on-harmony-with-nature/)

While some have previously expressed hope that Bolivia might play a
constructive role in debates on climate intervention, I think it's
safe to conclude that Bolivia has emerged as a leading opponent of
geoengineering on the world stage.
