The attacks on the Amazon are an international tragedy. What can we do? 1. Support the courageous resistance of the indigenous peoples of the Amazon. 2. Make clear to the agribusiness & financiers involved in the destruction that we won’t buy their products.

Brazil's Indigenous movement marched today against a bill that would decimate their territorial rights & open lands up to extractive industries. They were met with tear gas & gunfire by police. The world must rise up in solidarity with #EarthDefenders ! #PL490Nao #LevantePelaTerra
