After the readings I had for Latin American Studies on environmental degradation in Latin America and its effects, I immediately ran across an article talking about how a mudslide (presumably caused by deforestation) killed eight and hundreds or even thousands are left homeless. Another problem is complicating the rescue effort - action by the FARC rebel army against rescuers. An interesting combination of problems common to Latin America causing grief for the average unfortunate citizen.
