Amazon Watch defends indigenous rights and territories, vital for protecting the Amazon rainforest. Indigenous lands, holding 80% of global biodiversity, face constant threats from extractive industries seeking resources. If unchecked, the Amazon's Sacred Headwaters could become an oil field, and other regions destroyed by agribusiness and mega-dams.

We stand with indigenous allies to establish "No Go Zones" and champion Sarayaku's Kawsak Sacha (Living Forests) proposal, advocating to keep oil in the ground and expand this model across the Amazon, protecting areas like Yasuní National Park. Our international campaigns, including the Amazon Crude Campaign, reduce demand for destructive oil and expose harmful financiers. Learn more and join the movement at amazonwatch.org.

For thousands of years, Makah Tribal fishermen like Robert Moss have relied on the waters of Washington's Neah Bay for traditional foods. Today, however, the tribe faces a significant threat from marine debris, including a massive 3,000-ton abandoned highway bridge, which jeopardizes their ancestral waters and the health of their fishing community.

In a story of resilience, Tribal leaders and organizations are collaborating to remove and recycle this decaying infrastructure and other abandoned vessels. Their efforts aim to restore the waters and ensure the continuation of traditional food sources for the Makah community.

In Nevada's Thacker Pass, Indigenous tribes are battling powerful entities over a massive lithium mine by Lithium Americas. Backed by the Biden administration and General Motors, this project, vital for electric vehicles, exposes the dark side of the "green energy" transition, prioritizing profit over sacred land and local communities.

The documentary, "Thacker Pass - Mining the Sacred," by award-winning journalist Brandi Morin and filmmaker Geordie Day, chronicles the Indigenous resisters putting their freedom on the line. It was co-produced by Ricochet Media, IndigiNews, and The Real News Network.

Green colonialism impacts the Indigenous Sámi of northern Europe, with large-scale renewable energy and conservation projects built on ancestral lands without full consent. Wind farms, “green” mineral mining, and hydroelectric dams disrupt traditional livelihoods like reindeer herding. Framed as sustainable, these projects often dispossess Sámi, marginalizing their knowledge, rights, and self-determination for climate action. This issue was investigated by Tristen Taylor, Ingrid Gercama, and Nathalie Bertrams in “Green Colonialism: How New Mines in Sweden Threaten the Sámi.”

An image shows Sámi reindeer herder and joik singer Lars-Ánte Kuhmunen in a corral near Rensjön, Sweden, photographed by Nathalie Bertrams. Kuhmunen's 2005 album, "Birrasis," produced by Georg Buljio, is used with permission.
