About Uruguay

Uruguay is approximately the size of Syria with a population of almost 3.5 million people. Uruguay’s environmental issues, such as water and air pollution, stem from a variety of sources – its farming practices, tannery industry, improper disposal of the country’s solid and liquid waste, and the cities of Montevideo and Buenos Aires increasing pollutants in Rio de la Plata. Most of the country’s vast grasslands are used primarily to raise cattle and the animal waste destroys other ecosystems and pollutes the water. Ninety-one percent of the country’s renewable water resources are utilized for farming.
