"Three of the four candidates seeking the presidency in the July 1 election interacted in a disorderly and perhaps schizophrenic manner," said the Coahuilabased daily newspaper Vanguardia. "They mixed criticisms with promises that have already been heard for the last few months in advertisements and interviews." However, Gabriel Quadri de la Torre, candidate of the PANAL party, stood out from the other three candidates, specifically on the topic of renewable energy policy.

Argentina's Mining Sector Hit By Protests, Andrés Gaudín

NotiEn: An Analytical Digest About Energy Issues in Latin America

Amid a mining boom throughout Latin America, from Central America to the southern Patagonia, with at least 120 environmental conflicts related to extractive activities, Argentina is also witnessing confrontation between social sectors and the national and provincial governments, pro-mining groups, and beneficiaries of mining's vital financial bonanza. Residents of several small towns in northeastern Argentina are protesting against openpit mining ventures, which use large quantities of explosives to blast the rock where the minerals are hidden, cyanide in the leaching process, and huge amounts of water.
