In a major victory for the environment, human rights, and our climate, nine Amazonian girls just put an end to the oil industry's gas flaring in the Ecuadorian Amazon!
In an unprecedented case, a court ruled in favor of nine children who are growing up in the shadow of hundreds of gas flares in the Ecuadorian Amazon. The flares burn 24/7, releasing toxic chemicals and other pollutants into the surrounding air and water and making Ecuador one of the western Amazon's largest emitters of CO2. Oil companies now have 18 months to begin the phase-out of existing flares and end the practice by 2030.
This is a tribute to the nine Ecuadorian girls who finally extinguished fifty years of gas flaring in the Ecuador Amazon. We stand with you. The world and our planet thank you!
