John, when you donate to Amazon Watch this month, your contribution will be matched three-to-one! This is the largest challenge grant we have ever received for Giving Tuesday. Let's make it count!

Lasso's right-wing government hopes to open up the Ecuadorian Amazon to the oil and mining industries. He intends to double oil production with two executive decrees that violate the rights of nature and Indigenous communities, including the Tagaeri and Taromenane, the country's last two Indigenous peoples living in isolation.

We must be in solidarity with Indigenous resistance because oil expansion cannot continue. Will you join us?

100% of every donation goes directly to our program work to protect and defend the Amazon.

Together we have the opportunity to raise $900,000 to advance Indigenous rights and defend the rainforest by #GivingTuesday! Can you make a gift to stop ecosystem destruction and advance Indigenous rights? With this three-to-one match, your impact will be tripled!

The Tagaeri and Taromenane need the international community to act. At Amazon Watch, we joined our Indigneous partners and allies in a lawsuit to overturn the president's decrees. Our campaigners are also pushing banks to reject financing for any deals that might result from them. With the Amazon at the tipping point, we must End Amazon Crude now!

Your contribution today makes all the difference. Thank you!
