This Indigenous land defender stood against a mining giant trying to exploit her people’s land in the Amazon — and won.

Alessandra Korap Munduruku is now being recognized for her work as an environmental protector in Brazil, where protecting the land can be deadly.

All carbon offsets, trading, and market-based systems are distractions from true climate action to phase out fossil fuels. Hands off Indigenous lands! #StopCO2Colonialism #NoFalseSolutions

Two years ago our Capitol was attacked by fanatics, now we are watching it happen in Brazil.

Solidarity with Lula and the Brazilian people.

Democracies around the world must stand united to condemn this attack on democracy.

Bolsonaro should not be given refuge in Florida.

[Rep. Susan Wild (Archived) @RepSusanWild]

All who believe in democracy—here in the US, across Latin America, & around the world—have a duty to affirm unequivocally that we stand with democratically-elected President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva & with the Brazilian people against all attacks on democratic institutions.

We invite journalists to report as Dom wanted: on the ground, thinking about the future of the Amazon and how to prevent its collapse.

Indigenous Peoples are protectors of the land and water everywhere in the world, and must have a seat at the table in decision-making processes like CBD #COP15. To protect the climate and biodiversity globally, governments must stop ignoring them. #COP15
