Uma seca severa na Venezuela expôs uma igreja, que havia sido inundada quando uma usina hidroeléctrica foi construída em 1985.
Com 82 metros de comprimento e 25 metros de altura a igreja de Potosí foi inundada para encher o reservatório de agua para alimentar a usina, que está actualmente operando com apenas 7 por cento da sua capacidade , de acordo com o serviço da Reuters.
A igreja é agora um símbolo sinistro da escassez de energia no país, que recebe cerca de 68 por cento de sua força a partir da hidroeletricidade, informou a Reuters. As secas impulsionou o presidente venezuelano, Hugo Chávez, para declarar uma emergência energética em Fevereiro.
