Abstract
Este estudio analiza la evidencia directa del cambio climático en Bolivia durante los últimos 60 años y realiza una estimación de los efectos de estos cambios sobre la esperanza de vida y el nivel de consumo en cada uno de los 311 municipios de Bolivia. En contradicción con la mayoría de los modelos de circulación global, la evidencia directa muestra una tendencia consistente de enfriamiento de aproximadamente 0.2ºC por década en el Altiplano, evidencia esporádica de calentamiento en las tierras bajas, y ninguna tendencia sistemática en las precipitaciones. Las estimaciones indican que el enfriamiento observado de 1ºC en las áreas ya frías del Altiplano durante las últimas cinco décadas probablemente ha reducido el nivel de consumo en 2-3 por ciento en estas áreas. Dado que la población más rica de las tierras bajas se ha beneficiado levemente del cambio climático reciente, nuestras simulaciones sugieren que el cambio climático reciente ha contribuido a un aumento en la pobreza y la desigualdad en Bolivia. Los habitantes pobres e indígenas del Altiplano son los que más han sido afectados. No se ha encontrado un efecto significativo sobre la esperanza de vida.
