Brasil: paren la corrupción que está matando la Amazonía
23:01 | 
Publicado por
Eco Sitio |
El líder de Brasil está tratando de vender trozos gigantescos de un área protegida de la Amazonía a empresarios corruptos a cambio de favores políticos. ¡La última parte a la venta equivale a la mitad de Alemania!
Pero podemos pararlos. El presidente está atravesando una profunda crisis, con la opinión pública en contra y bajo constante presión mediática, por corrupción y ataques al medio ambiente.
Esta semana el Presidente de Brasil se marcha a la Asamblea General de Naciones Unidas y tratará de conseguir el respaldo de los medios. Arruinémosle los planes apareciendo en Nueva York con 2 millones de firmas y una sorprendente acción ciudadana para dejarle claro que la única manera de salvar su carrera es proteger la Amazonía.

Hold mining companies accountable for clean-up
Across the country, families that live near polluted industrial facilities are faced with dirty water, dirty air and contaminated soils. Too often, taxpayers are left with the clean-up costs.
Right now, the EPA is considering a rule that will require mining corporations to post funds, up front, to cover the cost of cleanup for hazardous mine pollution. These funds are a type of financial assurance in case the company can’t or won’t conduct clean-up.
The rule is simple: you make a mess; you clean it up.
The mining industry is urging the Trump administration to shelve the rule, or gut it by accepting mere company promises, known as “corporate guarantees,” rather than real funds. We can't let that happen: Taxpayers are already on the hook for an estimated $20-$54 billion in cleanup costs at existing hardrock mines! The mining industry is the nation’s leading source of toxic pollution.
Tell the Trump administration to protect our land, air and water!

Stop Trump from destroying Alaska's Bristol Bay!
A foreign mining corporation wants to build a monstrous open pit mine at the headwaters of Alaska’s Bristol Bay – home to the largest and most productive wild salmon runs on Earth. Scientific review says it will cause irreversible damage.
In 2014, the EPA initiated a plan to protect the salmon in response to urgent requests from Alaska commercial fishermen, tribes, hunters and anglers, restaurants, supermarkets, churches, conservationists and activists like you.
Now, the Trump Administration wants to reverse course on those protections and help Pebble Mine destroy Bristol Bay.

Stop uranium mining near Mt. Rushmore
Mining company Azarga/Powertech is proposing to mine for uranium just in the Black Hills of South Dakota, just 50 miles from Mount Rushmore – threatening drinking water for families and ranchers.
If this mine is built, it will be the first in-situ leach uranium mine in South Dakota. This type of operation pumps a chemical solution into a groundwater aquifer that contains uranium ore. The chemical solution picks up the uranium, and the solution is pumped back to the surface for processing.
Groundwater has never been returned to its original condition at any in-situ leach uranium mine in the U.S.
We can't afford to pollute clean water.
Tell the EPA to protect South Dakota's groundwater from uranium mining!

Protect vital Western waters from toxic waste
This September, the EPA proposed adding the abandoned, toxic Anaconda Mine site near Yerington, Nevada to the National Priorities List (i.e. Superfund) so that cleanup can be completed.
The Superfund Law provides federal funding to clean up hazardous waste sites.
Adding the Anaconda Mine site to the list of sites that need Superfund help is an historic step forward. The toxins left behind by the abandoned mine have been polluting the area, including local drinking water supplies, for at least 30 years. Nearby residents must drink bottled water because of radionuclides in their well water.
The battle to add the site to the EPA Superfund list has gone on for more than a dozen years. Now is our chance to take this fight to the finish line.
Tell EPA to put the Anaconda Mine on the National Priorities List and clean up the abandoned and polluting site!

Protect wild rivers from strip mining!
The public has made it abundantly clear, the pristine headwaters of the National Wild and Scenic Smith and Illinois Rivers near California and Oregon’s renowned Wild Rivers Coast are too special to mine.
With crystal clear water, robust salmon runs, and globally unique botanical values, these National Forest and BLM lands must be protected.
Over the past year, the Forest Service and BLM have considered a proposal to withdraw the headwaters from mining for 5 years while Congress considers permanent protection.
However, based on your overwhelming public support, with 99.9% of comments in favor, the Interior Department is now considering extending the ban on mining to 20 years. Given the gridlock in Congress, this is great news!
Tell BLM to support a 20 year mineral withdrawal to protect wild rivers!

Para cerrar Veladero: lucha, unidad y organización
En Jáchal e Iglesia, departamento de Iglesia, provincia de San Juan, Argentina, la Barrick Gold se ha instalado hace más de 10 años en la Cordillera de los Andes, en un proyecto que ocupa una zona periglaciar, estratégica por la presencia de agua y glaciares.
En 2014, esta misma empresa debió dejar de funcionar en Chile, debido a que el Poder Judicial avaló las denuncias de las comunidades originarias del Valle de Huasco, por la contaminación de sus aguas y sus tierras, y la destrucción de su economía regional.
Poco después, en Septiembre de 2015, se hizo público el derrame de más de un millón 1.250.000 litros de solución cianurada en el Río Jáchal, fuente de agua de ríos de San Juan, La Rioja, Mendoza y Córdoba. Al principio, negaron la contaminación. Luego, intentaron minimizarla, reduciendo las cantidades del desastre. Pero no pudieron esconder más lo que venía pasando. Los habitantes de Jáchal e Iglesia, organizados en las calles, pusieron su grito en el mundo para denunciar lo que había pasado. Y a pesar de la represión, los amedrentamientos y desdenes, no pudieron callarlos.

I support Superfund in the wake of Gold King
Nine months ago, toxic mine waste flooded the Animas River in Colorado, leaving a bright orange plume of pollution in its wake.
Finally, EPA has decided to act to help the communities surrounding the Gold King mine and other similar mines and hazardous waste sites that have been polluted by toxic industries.
EPA is considering adding eight sites, including the area around the Gold King mine, to the Superfund National Priorities List (NPL). Being named to the list gives communities access to federal funds to help with cleanup.
Municipalities, tribes and elected officials along the Animas and San Juan Rivers have come out in support of such a listing. Stand with them to support Superfund designation.
Support Superfund cleanup at the Gold King mine and in polluted communities across the country!

Exigile a Macri que cierre la mina Veladero, en San Juan
El emprendimiento minero Veladero de la empresa Barrick Gold vertió en septiembre más de un millón de litros de solución cianurada al Río Potrerillo de San Juan sobre un área protegida por la Ley de Glaciares. Con el cianuro liberado, se arrastraron y activaron otros metales pesados que seguirán contaminando durante años, poniendo en peligro la salud de las personas, especies animales y del ambiente.
Sin embargo, por este grave desastre ambiental, la minera sólo recibió una multa. Veladero no sólo liberó sustancias tóxicas en un ambiente que debería estar protegido, sino que sigue operando con total impunidad y complicidad por parte del Estado.
La mina es una amenaza constante para el medio ambiente y esto exige que se tomen medidas urgentes para frenarlo. Pedile ahora al Presidente Mauricio Macri que ordene el cierre definitivo de la mina a cielo abierto Veladero y que Barrick Gold se haga cargo del proceso de cierre. Completá el formulario a continuación para enviar tu reclamo.

Protect Coastal Wild Wild Rivers from Nickel Strip Mining
Strip mining threatens wild rivers, salmon strongholds & botanical treasures
Mining companies want to strip mine nickel in the pristine headwaters of the Wild and Scenic Smith and Illinois Rivers along California and Oregon’s renowned wild rivers coast. Nearby Hunter Creek and Pistol River are also at risk. Despite overwhelming opposition, the archaic 1872 Mining Law prioritizes mining over all other land uses!
With crystal clear water, robust salmon runs, and globally unique botanical values, these National Forest and BLM lands are too special to mine!
The Interior Department is considering a proposal to protect these wild rivers by temporarily withdrawing 100,000 acres of surrounding public lands from mining while Congress considers legislation —the Southwest Oregon Watershed and Salmon Protection Act— for more lasting protection.
What’s at stake?
- Vital stronghold for wild salmon, steelhead, and cutthroat
- Public lands that support a treasure trove of botanical diversity with one of the highest concentrations of rare plants in North America!
- Pure drinking water for local communities A 20-year mineral withdrawal is the best way to secure the region’s extraordinary wildlands, wild rivers, and salmon runs into the future!

Stop the proposed Rock Creek mine!
The Cabinet Mountain Wilderness provides a rare glimpse of temperate forest in northwest Montana. This small sliver of wild land covers just 4% of the Kootenai National Forest, but it provides cold clean water to threatened bull trout and refuge for one of the few remaining grizzly bear populations in the lower-48.
The Rock Creek mine proposes to dig under the Cabinet Mountains Wilderness, and dispose of its mine waste adjacent to the Clark Fork River in an outdated, risky impoundment. To keep the underground tunnels dry, the mine proposes to lower the groundwater table and divert the groundwater that feeds the overlying wilderness streams.

Canadian Mines Threaten Alaska Salmon Streams
In Northwest British Columbia, Canada, a modern-day gold rush is underway that could threaten Southeast Alaska’s salmon, rivers, fishing and tourism jobs, and unique way of life. Spurred by weakened environmental and fishery regulations and the construction of a massive new power line, at least ten large-scale mines are under consideration or development.
Most of these Canadian mineral projects are located in transboundary watersheds of key salmon rivers that flow into Southeast Alaska. The Taku, Stikine and Unuk watersheds are the cultural and economic lifeblood of Southeast Alaska. The mines are likely to produce acid mine drainage and toxic heavy metals.
Stakeholders on both sides of the border are asking for the International Joint Commission (IJC) to help resolve these issues. The next IJC meeting is April 18th.

Nordic Mining: Stop Suing Peaceful Protesters!
Last month, more than 80 people in Norway were arrested for peacefully protesting plans to pollute a pristine fjord with mine waste, and fined US$100,000.
The protesters were blocking drilling equipment to stop Nordic Mining’s operation that would dump nearly 6 million tonnes of mine waste per year for 50 years into the majestic Førde fjord.
This pollution would devastate healthy fisheries and the families and businesses that depend on them.
Now, Nordic Mining is suing the protesters.

Protect Montana’s Sweet Grass Hills
In 1997, the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM) withdrew 19,687 acres of federal public lands from new mining claims to protect unique resources in the Sweet Grass Hills of north central Montana. That “mineral withdrawal” is set to expire unless the BLM’s proposal to extend these protections for another 20-years is granted.
The Sweet Grass Hills are central to a number of tribal creation stories, such as the Blackfeet, in which Napi, or Old Man, created the Sweet Grass Hills with rocks he carried after forming the Rocky Mountains.

Máxima Acuña acosada por empresa minera
Máxima Acuña y su familia, agricultores de subsistencia en el norte de Perú, han denunciado nuevos actos de intimidación y acoso perpetrados contra ellos, en esta ocasión por personal de seguridad de una empresa minera. Mantienen una disputa legal con la empresa minera por la propiedad de unas tierras en las que viven. Creen que los continuos actos de acoso e intimidación que sufren son un intento de obligarlos a marcharse.
Según organizaciones locales de derechos humanos, a las nueve y media de la mañana del 2 de febrero, personal de seguridad armado de la empresa minera Yanacocha entró en la tierra en la que Máxima Acuña y su familia ha vivido durante más de 20 años y destruyó el cultivo de papas que mantenían para su propio consumo. La familia denunció el incidente ante el Ministerio Público.
Dos días antes, el perro de la familia había sido hallado vivo pero con una herida de arma blanca en el cuello.
Máxima Acuña y su familia, agricultores de subsistencia, llevan años manteniendo una disputa con la empresa minera Yanacocha sobre la propiedad de la tierra en la que viven, en Tragadero Grande, distrito de Sorochuco, región de Cajamarca. El 17 de diciembre de 2014, un tribunal de Cajamarca determinó que la familia no era culpable de ocupación ilegal de la tierra, como alegaba la empresa. La empresa minera impugnó la decisión, y el 9 de marzo de 2015 la Corte Suprema confirmó la primera sentencia de absolución. Ahora la empresa minera rebate la propiedad de la tierra ante un tribunal civil.
