Urgent - sign this appeal to defend the Amazon and Indigenous lands!
Last week, the Brazilian Congress began voting for a new law that will allow miners and tree cutters back into our forests and sacred lands, and it will remove protections for Indigenous people like me.
The key vote is today!!! This is an Amazon emergency and an Indigenous emergency. I need your help.
Our country is so divided that we need a truly global outcry from countries like yours that financially support Brazil to stop this law. The Brazilian Congress must feel the full weight of a global spotlight right now!
And this is about your life too.
Without the Amazon, and without the protection that Indigenous peoples' lands offer to our forests, rivers and precious species, there is no way we'll avoid global ecological apocalypse. This forest is the lungs for all of us.
Please sign this urgent call to stop the rainforest attack. I will deliver your voices inside the Brazilian congress and to President Lula myself. Will you stand with me and ensure my voice has even more power?
