The Association of Indigenous Peoples of Brazil (APIB) and Amazon Watch launched Complicity in Destruction IV, exposing how mining companies and international investors drive Indigenous rights violations and threaten the future of the Amazon. This research is the first compilation of case studies exposing International actors' risks of potentially financing illegal mining interests on Indigenous Lands in the Brazilian Amazon. U.S.-based corporations remain some of the main financiers complicit in this destruction. The report reveals that over the last five years, Vale, Anglo American, Belo Sun, Potássio do Brasil, Mineração Taboca and Mamoré Mineração e Metalúrgica (both from Grupo Minsur), Glencore, AngloGold Ashanti and Rio Tinto received a total of US$ 54.1 billion in financing from U.S., Brazilian and international investors. The companies profiled share a history of human and environmental rights violations and a long-lasting interest in expanding their operations into Indigenous territories – where mining is currently illegal. Join us in solidarity with Brazil's Indigenous peoples. Together we can end the #ComplicityInDestruction
In the heart of the Brazilian Amazon, a real-world Pandora is threatened by the Belo Monte Monster Dam. Visit amazonwatch.org and sign the petition to tell the Brazilian government to STOP THE BELO MONTE DAM.
