The construction of illegal roads by a logging company in the Peruvian Amazon is causing pollution of the land and the illegal plundering of natural resources, and opening up this part of the Amazon to additional invasion, threatening the homes, livelihoods, cultures and lives of the Sawawo and Aconadysh Indigenous peoples. Join me, @rewild and @propurus in calling on the government of Peru—specifically the state of Ucayali—to stop the construction of these roads in the province of Yurua and ensure the safety of the Indigenous communities that live here and safeguard this special place, critical to a healthy planet.
