The fires that devastated the Amazon in the summer of 2019 were deliberately set by criminal arsonists, lighting up deforested areas of the rainforest for agricultural profit. While Americans were outraged by images of the fires in the news and on social media, there's evidence that destruction in the Amazon is fueled by our own consumer dollars.
SIGN THE PETITION: DEMAND U.S. COMPANIES STOP FINANCING AMAZON DESTRUCTION:

Amazon Watch's report, Complicity in Destruction II, explains how firms that fuel the destruction of the Brazilian Amazon receive key financing from major investors in the United States.
Although these exporters of soy, cattle, and timber have documented links to violations of Indigenous rights, land theft, illegal deforestation, corruption, slave labor, and other crimes, American investors JPMorgan Chase, BlackRock, Vanguard, and State Street continue to bankroll them.
We can halt the destruction of the Amazon rainforest, but we need your help! We cannot risk causing irreversible damage to our planet.
Demand that U.S.-based corporations, financiers, and banks divest from Brazilian companies that are the source of the Amazon destruction!
