Urspruenglich stammt er aus dem Dorf Tauari in der Nachbar-Gemeinde Belterra. Er leitete diese Dorfgemeinschaft und versuchte im Jahr 2000 die Menschen in der Region gegen die Soja-Invasion zu mobilisieren. Nachdem viele Bauern ihr Land verkauft hatten, musste Silvino sein Land ebenfalls verkaufen, da er durch den Einsatz von Pestiziden, die auf den umliegenden Feldern ausgebracht wurden, krank geworden war. Er wartet jetzt darauf, bei der Landrefom neues Land zugewiesen zu bekommen.Locations:Europe-Germany-HamburgDate:17 May, 2006Credit:© Holde Schneider / GreenpeaceMaximum size:2657px X 1772pxKeywords:Activists-Day-Deforestation-Eye contact-Forests (campaign title)-KWCI (GPI)-Men-One person-Outdoors-PortraitsShoot:Worldwide Action against Rainforest DestructionGreenpeace activists cover trees in with flame posters to protest against destructive logging for soya plantations in the Brazilian Amazon area. The soy grown in the Amazon is transported to Europe where it is a cheap way to feed cattle. The U.S. companies Cargill, Bunge and Archer Daniels Midland (ADM) together control 60 percent of Brazil's soybean production and more than three quarters of the soybean processing industry in Europe. The action is being held in 11 different countries on the same day; Brazil, Argentina, USA, Canada, Australia, Papua New Guinea, Check Republic, Hungary, Spain and the Netherlands.
