Oil extraction in Peruvian Amazon
samedi 26 août 2017 à 02:00Indigenous peoples in the Peruvian Amazon threaten to block oil extraction if the state fails to comply with its law requiring consultation with them on a new oil project.
It is inexcusable to start new oil wells in places where they can be particularly harmful. We need to leave 80% of the known reserves in the ground, so any reserves that cause special risks should be part of that 80%.
