A pradise that gets lost in the way…We can appreciate all the beauty of this

natural and ecological place.

Why does the river lose its beauty ? What is the principal problem? Indiference…

Where does the proble start?People have tanneries where they work their materials with strong chemical products that will end in the river… that is where the problem starts near Villapinzón.

And the problem gets worse…The river is dying…
