Description

Argentina created the National Environmental Research Council on 25 July 1947. The council coordinated studies on pollution, land degradation, and wildlife protection. Scientists worked with provincial agencies to monitor environmental changes. Their findings led to early regulations involving industrial waste and water quality. The council supported conservation training programs and public awareness campaigns. Its creation strengthened national environmental policy. The institution became a foundational part of Argentina’s ecological research network.
