Take Action: Stop Honduras Dam Project from Destroying Rainforest
Www.reclaimcontrol.co.uk
During the summer Honduran soldiers shot dead Tomás García, an
indigenous Lenca activist, as he was protesting against the construction of the Agua Zarca hydroelectric dam in the community of Rio Blanco, western Honduras. García and his son, along with other community members, were making their way to the protest site when, according to witnesses, soldiers opened fire and began indiscriminately shooting at the terrified protesters.
The Honduran congress had approved a deal with a Chinese company that entails building damns on the Patuca River. Since then, four indigenous groups and Afro-Hondurans have persisted in an effort to save the river, their means of living, and their ancient cultures. Tell the President of the Republic of Honduras to stop this plan from coming to life in order to save these indigenous people.
