"Qui vivono #Siona, #Cofán, #Shuar, #Siekopai, #Achuar e #Kichwa: popoli che custodiscono questo territorio in equilibrio con la foresta.
Per loro, la terra non è una risorsa da consumare, ma un essere vivente con cui convivere."

"#SolarPower is shaping how they go about daily life in ways big and small, from how they get to work to how they negotiate their connections to the world beyond the #Amazon... Loaded with panels on their roofs, 4 boats now circulate across 12 #Achuar communities... last year, a cadre of Achuar technicians hooked up the school to #SolarPanels... Satellite technology, also powered by the sun, powers a WiFi network."
Isabel Alarcon: In the Amazon, a new way to live off nature
"More than 20 years ago, Nantu Canelos had a vision. The Indigenous leader saw in dreams how the wooden huts in this secluded Amazonian community glowed from within as night enveloped the lush, surrounding jungle.
This village of 100 people is enclosed by some of Ecuador’s biggest oil reserves. For more than 40 years, the local Indigenous people, the Achuar, have been advocating to stop oil development, which has ravaged large swaths of the Ecuadorian Amazon. But even as they fought against fossil fuels, gasoline was their only option to light their homes & power the boats tied to their livelihood. This area has the thinnest electric coverage in the country.
But now a smattering of solar panels across 12 villages in a couple of Ecuador’s deeply forested eastern provinces are making Canelos’s vision materialize. …"

Bracing read from filmmaker Josh Fox on the fight to save the lungs of the Earth from the madness of extracting oil, and the Indigenous people on the front lines.
This fight belongs to all of us.

Just watched Waters of Pastaza at #IDFA2022. A #documentary where Amazon children of the #Achuar community (Peru/Ecuador) use the jungle not only as a place to get their food from (coconuts, banana, fish, wild cucumbers) but also as their playground. They laugh, make their own toys and enjoy their surroundings. It seems idyllic. However, their village has electricity. And with that comes..... the #smartphone.
