When an entire country comes together to support climate solutions, the rest of us must defend their victories to bring about lasting change for our planet.

This is what happened last August, when Ecuadorians won a hard-fought victory to protect Yasuní National Park from oil drilling. Keeping oil in the ground in the most biodiverse place on Earth is definitely one of those indisputable, game-changing wins.

But it is still at risk if the government refuses to respect the will of its people. Will you give today to see this victory through?

Amazon Watch has stood alongside the Waorani and all Indigenous communities in Ecuador for the last 17 years in their struggle to protect the Yasuní. We are working tirelessly to ensure that their voices are heard and that the Ecuadorian government respects the will of its people.

But we cannot do it alone. Your support is crucial! Please help us amplify the demands of local communities and to hold the government accountable for its promises.

This is a pivotal moment. Yasuní must remain a symbol of hope and a testament to the power of collective action in the fight against climate change.

Please join us in defending this critical victory for the planet. Your donation today will directly support our work to protect Yasuní and uphold the rights of Indigenous peoples on the front lines of the struggle for a fossil-free future.

Thank you!
