RonAnybody heard about this initiative?
Pitalala Reserve, a protected area inside the “biodiversity vertex,” a 100 km2 quadrant holding the ABSOLUTE greatest number of animal and plant species per unit area anywhere on Earth, hoping to secure its designation as the first-ever Kichwa Biosphere Reserve. The expansion of the reserve will stop a network of colossal open-pit gold mining operations through the direct purchase of rainforest land lots. #Khamai #Pitalala #Kichwa
