John,
There’s an area of the Bolivian Amazon that scientists call a vital bridge
between worlds. Here jaguars and pumas roam, maned wolves run, and shy
tapirs gently forage – an entire ecosystem of species move through this
natural corridor connecting the humid rainforest with the dry Chiquitano
forest.
But the last, big stretch of this precious forest is about to be sold to a
Brazilian soy giant – unless we help save it!
Our partners on the front lines say it’s not too late to block the sale,
but they can’t do it alone. They’re up against agribusiness giant, Bom
Futuro, with seemingly endless funds and in an exceptionally complex legal
and regulatory process.
But with an influx of cash now, they can press ahead with legal
challenges, getting officials onside, monitoring forest and documenting
threats – whatever it takes to prove this land must be protected and stop
the sale. They’re running out of time – and urgently asking for help. Can
you chip in to save this vital piece of the Bolivian Amazon?

The drawn rectangle in the image is an area 3 times the size of Paris.
This is the last stretch of unbroken forest that still connects the
Bolivian dry Amazon (the Chiquitano forest) with the larger Amazon basin:

If sold to Bom Futuro, precious forest would be razed and replaced with
industrial-sized plots of soy, devastating the fragile ecosystem and the
surrounding territories where Indigenous communities live:

Endangered wildlife won’t be able to move between the Amazon rainforest
and Chiquitano dry forests, like the giant armadillo:

Millions of acres of Chiquitania have already been destroyed in just a few
years. This area of the Bolivian Amazon has some of the highest rates of
deforestation from slash-and-burn agriculture. And agribusiness is rushing
to swoop in and turn even more of it into farmland.
Saving these last acres of unbroken forest is absolutely critical. The
forest stores water, shelters wildlife, and protects the people who live
around it. This is their last hope for the survival of every living thing
there!
There's still time to challenge it legally and push regulators to do the
right thing. But they're running out of money – and out of time. If enough
of us chip in, we can rush them the cash they need to stop this disastrous
land sale. And help defend people and nature from exploitative
corporations.
Can you chip in to save this vital piece of the Bolivian Amazon?
