SAVE
*THE GREAT AMAZON RAINFOREST*
* Todays Amazon Jungle*The money greedy Peruvian government has pushed through legislation that could allow extractive and large scale farming companies to rapidly destroy their Amazon rainforest.
The indigenous people of Peru have peacefully protested for over two months demanding the government to reconsider. These tribal people who still call the Amazon there home, will be forced from there lands, imprisoned or even killed if they don't cooperate with government.
But last weekend President Garcia responded: sending in special forces to suppress protests in violent clashes, and labelling the protesters as terrorists.
We all need to wake up. Never believe what they the media try and feed us. Governments world wide rape, exploit an destroy the earth for there own greed.
The amazon region is home to at least 40,000 plant species, 3,000 fish, 1,294 birds, 427 mammals, 428 amphibians, and 378 reptiles. One in five of all the birds in the world live in the rainforests of the Amazon.
The bigger picture is as deforestation an mining take over the Amazon, it will wipe out countless spices of animals an plant life. This in turn will force animals closer to city's, Hunting and the nature of man to exploit for greed- will mean the black marked will flourish causing a bleak outlook for all wildlife.
*CAUSE AND EFFECT*Future generations will not have the chance to enjoy the beauty and slender of the natural world. the world that we all take for granted.
These indigenous groups are on the front line of the struggle to protect our earth.
*We must hear the call an come to the need of our brothers an sister of the Amazon*Let's all stand with them and call on President Alan Garcia, to immediately stop the violence and open up dialogue.
More than 70 per cent of the Peruvian Amazon is now up for grabs. Giant oil and gas companies, like the Anglo-French Perenco and the North Americans Conoco Phillips and Talisman Energy, have already pledged multi-billionaire investments in the region. These big company's have a very poor record of bringing benefits to local people and preserving the environment in developing countries.
This is why indigenous groups are asking for internationally recognized rights to consultation on the new laws.
The Amazon are the lungs of our planet. It breaths in the carbon emissions that cause global warming and producing oxygen.
WITHOUT THEM WHAT FUTURE DO WE REALLY HAVE ?For far too long have world governments an the United Nation stood by and allowed the rape and destruction of our mother earth. its up to all of us to unite an do all we can to bring about change and free mother earth.
