Collection: Tapajós River and the Munduruku Indigenous People - Tight Edit (Photos & Videos)
GP0STQ1L6
UPDATE: VICTORY FOR THE MUNDURUKU INDIGENOUS PEOPLE!
A decision has been made by the Brazilian environmental agency, IBAMA, to cancel the licensing process to build the São Luiz do Tapajós (SLT), a giant dam planned on one of the last major free flowing rivers in the Brazilian Amazon. Without the license, the approval process for the megadam cannot move forward. If allowed, the mega dam would have caused irreversible damage to the environment and the Munduruku people’s way of life. Mega-dams like these threaten the fragile biome of the Amazon, where rivers are fundamental to regeneration and distribution of plant species and the survival of local flora. Renewable energy, such as solar and wind, holds the key to Brazil’s energy future.
This collection contains documentation of the Munduruku people in the Amazon Rainforest, and their work to protect their land.
Documentação sobre o povo Munduruku, na Amazônia. O governo brasileiro planeja construir 43 hidrelétricas na bacia do Tapajós. A maior delas, São Luiz do Tapajós, terá impacto sobre a vida dos povos indígenas e comunidades ribeirinhas. Barragens como essas ameaçam o frágil bioma da Amazônia, onde os rios são fundamentais para a regeneração e distribuição de espécies vegetais e a sobrevivência da flora local. Energias renováveis, como solar e eólica, detêm a chave para o futuro energético do Brasil.
