@EvoReef In general, I'd be interested in Bolivia maximizing the employment and social benefits that Bolivia gets from its newly built infrastructure while minimizing the environmental costs.

@EvoReef So I have three concerns, but they all begin with the fact that Bolivia has *no plans* to use this new energy domestically.
-
@EvoReef 1. Why is Bolivia, with enormous wind and solar potential, so focused on gas and hydro?
-
@EvoReef 2. Why is investment going into essentially extractive model, when productive sectors generate far more jobs per amount invested?
-
@EvoReef 3. Is this energy export market a figment of the government's imagination that will lead to massive stranded plants ten years down the road?

@EvoReef These are concerns of numerous Bolivian organizations and critics, but yes I'm a scholar born and working in the USA.
