Perú declara 'emergencia ambiental' por derrame petrolero

Lima. Perú declaró este sábado “emergencia ambiental” por 90 días a la zona costera dañada por el derrame de 6.000 barriles de crudo hace una semana en medio del oleaje causado al parecer por una erupción volcánica en Tonga.

Con esta medida, el gobierno prevé un “manejo sostenible de los territorios afectados”, con las respectivas “labores de recuperación y remediación” para mitigar la contaminación.
