A brand new documentary has just been released highlighting the local and international efforts of the Achuar, Wampís, and Chapra nations from the Peruvian Amazon against state-run oil company Petroperú and its financiers.
The video includes first-hand testimonies of Indigenous leaders and activists, and it accompanies the 2024 Banking on Climate Chaos report, which is the most comprehensive analysis of the banks and financial institutions backing the fossil fuel industry.
Since the adoption of the Paris Agreement, fossil fuel financing has continued to spike, with $705 billion in 2023 alone. Even after clear messages from the International Energy Agency and Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change that we can’t afford new fossil fuels, banks continue to finance fossil fuel expansion.
Please watch the video and share it widely, and take action to demand an end to the financing of Amazon destruction!
