The environmental issue is one of the controversial points of the management of La Libertad Avanza (LLA). During the campaign, Javier Milei denied on several occasions that human activity affects climate change and called environmentalism a propaganda of “cultural Marxism”. It also included in that category the “2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development”, which is a commitment of the states that make up the United Nations Organization (UN) to implement 17 objectives and 169 goals (SDGs) which include measures to eradicate hunger and achieve food security; such as ensuring water and sustainable energy or adopting against climate change.
Despite this public rejection and the campaign slogans, the Government has already confirmed that it is not going to change its climate agenda and will continue to comply with the Paris Agreement. Furthermore, the decree with the new organizational chart establishes in its annex that among the missions of the Secretariat of Tourism, Environment and Sports are “contribute to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) and their goals” and “develop, promote and implement policies, plans, projects and programs related to climate mitigation and adaptation, linked to environmental preservation.”
The truth is that the rejection of environmental policy is present in their libertarian government proposals. Days ago, some 80 environmental and social organizations sent a letter to the Chamber of Deputies of the Nation to express their rejection of the “Omnibus Law” project sent by the National Executive Branch because they indicated that it represents “serious setbacks in environmental legislation.”
