🍃✊🏽 El pueblo Secoya exige la titulación integral de su territorio
En una audiencia histórica ante el Tribunal Constitucional del #Perú, @tconstitucional_peru, el pueblo #Secoya hizo escuchar su voz en defensa de su territorio ancestral en Iquitos.
Las lideresas y líderes Secoya exigieron el reconocimiento y la titulación integral de más de 260.000 hectáreas y denunciaron que el sistema actual no garantiza plenamente los derechos territoriales de los pueblos indígenas.
⚖️ Durante la audiencia rechazaron la figura de la "cesión en uso", denunciando que limita el reconocimiento de hasta el 80 % de su territorio ancestral y señalando que vulnera su seguridad física, cultural y jurídica. Para ellos, el territorio es la base de su identidad, su supervivencia y su futuro frente a las amenazas y las economías ilegales.

2020: #Chevron is refusing to pay for the '#Amazon #Chernobyl' – we can fight back with citizen action

by Alec Baldwin and Paul Paz y Miño
"In 2001, #Chevron acquired #Texaco, including all of its assets and civil liabilities. One of those liabilities was the “Amazon Chernobyl”, a 1,700-square-mile #EnvironmentalDisaster in Ecuador that Texaco created through a disregard – and an attitude that local #Indigenous groups have called racism – for the health of the region’s peoples. Texaco, the sole operator of the fields from 1964 to 1992, eventually admitted that it deliberately discharged 72bn litres of #toxic water into the environment, which ended up in the #water supply, and gouged 1,000 unlined waste pits out of the jungle floor. According to several Indigenous witnesses, including Humberto Piaguaje, a leader of the Ecuadorean #Secoya people, the company actually claimed that the oil wastes were medicinal and 'full of vitamins'.
"Studies have shown thousands of excess cases of cancer deaths and other health problems in the region.
"Chevron insists that Texaco is only responsible for a portion of the damage, has 'already cleaned up its share' and attributes any remaining pollution to Ecuador’s state-owned national oil company. The government of Ecuador has been clear, in turn, that Chevron is liable for all of the damage."
