"Indigenous peoples know and have been saying for quite some time that everything in this life is interconnected. When you destroy Mother Earth in one place, every part of the world feels this destruction."
Our planet is burning. From the criminal arson ravaging the Amazon rainforest for profit to the wildfires raging on the West Coast due to the escalating climate crisis. These are not isolated incidents, and they cannot become "our new normal."
Fires in the Brazilian Amazon are up 85% compared to last year during just the first ten days of September. Sonia Guajajara and the Indigenous peoples of the Amazon are sounding the alarm: we are witnessing a climate emergency and we cannot let the complicit evade accountability.
John: WATCH SONIA'S CALL FOR AN #AMAZONCEASEFIRE

Indigenous leader Eloy Terena personally presented BlackRock CEO Larry Fink with specific evidence outlining its investments in Amazon destruction over a year ago. Yet BlackRock continues to invest millions in the agribusiness companies most responsible for deforestation. Last month alone, roughly 136,000 hectares of rainforest were cleared – an area larger than the city of Los Angeles.
Criminal arson will continue to ravage our forests as long as corporations and financial institutions keep putting profit over our planet. Indigenous leaders like Sonia need the world to demand that this destruction end, once and for all.
