In April, Ecuador's two major oil pipelines, operated by Petroecuador and OCP, ruptured. An estimated 16,000 barrels of crude oil spilled into the Napo and Coca rivers, affecting 27,000 Kichwa Indigenous people in the Ecuadorian Amazon. They lost their sole source of water at a time when they need it most to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.
John: DEMAND A FULL CLEANUP OF THIS SPILL:

The oil companies' cruel negligence has left toxic contamination on the banks of the rivers and in the soil where communities grow their crops. Yet, they have declared the cleanup complete.
The toxic legacy of the oil industry has cast a long shadow over the Ecuadorian Amazon for decades. We have an opportunity to make sure that this history is not repeated.
The oil companies are attempting to wash their hands of the country's largest oil spill in over a decade. Ecuador's Ministry of Environment and Water can either let them get away with it or hold them accountable for a full remediation and restoration of the rivers.
Tell Ecuador to do its job and ensure a proper cleanup of this oil spill!
