O protesto, que contou com a participação de cerca de 60 Munduruku, ocorreu na região onde o governo pretende construir a primeira de uma série de cinco hidrelétricas na bacia do Tapajós. “O Brasil insiste em seu plano de barrar os grandes rios da Amazônia, ignorando os alertas do clima e negando o direito de consulta prévia, livre e informada aos povos tradicionais da região, que terão seu modo de vida afetado de forma irreversível por essas obras", disse Danicley de Aguiar, da campanha Amazônia do Greenpeace.
