Time To End Amazon Oil Drilling!


The science is clear: we have to keep two-thirds of fossil fuels in the ground to avoid catastrophic climate change, so why are we looking for more? We need to start keeping oil in the ground, and the Amazon is a great place to start.

 

 

The Amazon rainforest is critically important to the survival of our planet and the indigenous peoples that call it home.

Given the science mandate to keep oil in the ground and the demands of our indigenous allies, the Amazon Basin is the perfect place to start. Leave the oil in the ground!
