Learn more about Bolivia's environment Español On the occasion of Earth Day, which is celebrated every 22nd of April around the world, the Autonomous State Government of Santa Cruz, Bolivia and BoliviaBella.com joined forces for environmental conservation, by announcing in 2011 the formation of a one-year voluntary alliance, appropriately named "Santa Cruz Grows Green", to promote environmental education and the adoption of more sustainable practices in the state of Santa Cruz. The articles we shared during that year contain information about Bolivia's environment, green spaces, forests, biodiversity, flora, fauna, conservation efforts, protected areas, national parks, protected and endangered species, and much more.
