...in Bolivia that the media isn't talking about. But here it is, a bit later in the article:

Deforestation

For many years, Bolivia came under fire for having one of the highest deforestation rates in the world.

Morales has also earned the ire of many environmental NGOs due to his government’s stance of opposing “carbon offset” schemes that seek to pay communities — and NGOs — in the global South to protect forests. This is intended to “offset” ongoing pollution by companies in other countries.
