As we approach International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples, we revisit our research on the Yavari-Tapiche Corridor. With AEDESEP, ORPIO, and COIAB, we document threats to a proposed 16-million-hectare territory along Brazil and Peru’s west Amazon earth-insight.org/report/van…
This article in @down2earthindia explores our latest research on the accelerating threat of Japan’s record-breaking wood pellet imports to Indonesia's Indigenous Territories, intact forests, and rainforest species. #bioenergy #deforestation #Indonesia

Our new spatial analysis in collaboration with global partners shines a spotlight on the fact that all coral reef and mangrove ecosystems along Kenya’s coast fall within the proposed offshore blocks. #ocean #ouroceanconference @OurOceanOOC
#EACOP is almost built. That means the decisions being made right now, at specific river banks and wetland edges across Uganda and Tanzania, will shape the ecological and social health of this region for the foreseeable future. OpEd by Juan Pablo Osornio

Deep in the Amazon, along Peru-Brazil border, lies proposed Yavarí-Tapiche Corridor: 16 million hectares of intact forest sheltering world's highest concentration of Indigenous peoples living in isolation. But threats (oil/gas, mining/logging, highways, narcos) are closing in, new report shows.
“Fossil Free Zones are one of the most concrete, actionable tools governments have to translate their commitment to transitioning away from fossil fuels into real, enforceable decisions on the ground,” - Ignacío Arroniz #FossilFreeZones

38% of community forests overlapped by oil & gas concessions in the Congo Region. 99% of Cuvette Centrale Peatland community forests are under oil threat, that is 30 billion tons of carbon at stake. earth-insight.org/report/ipl… #TheAnswerIsUs #IndigenousRights
In the Amazon Basin, oil and gas blocks cover 31 million hectares (12%) of Indigenous territories, while mining and logging threaten millions more hectares of critical rainforest. 64% of Waorani territory is overlapped by oil blocks despite court rulings.
