EE. UU. reduce la definición de “daño” en la ESA y elimina protecciones generales

El Departamento del Interior de EE. UU. aprobó una norma que reduce la definición de “daño” en la Ley de Especies en Peligro, permitiendo la alteración de hábitats para proyectos de desarrollo, según el Los Angeles Times.

NPR informó que la norma provocó varias demandas de grupos ambientalistas y tribus nativas, mientras que grupos industriales expresaron su apoyo; Vox señaló que las organizaciones ecologistas temen que la medida debilite la protección de la vida silvestre. La Associated Press indicó que el Departamento del Interior también anuló una regulación que otorgaba protecciones automáticas y generales a especies amenazadas, exigiendo planes de protección caso por caso y análisis de impacto económico; PBS y The Independent confirmaron que el cambio requiere revisiones individuales y recibió críticas de grupos conservacionistas.
